Bayern Munich rival Real Madrid in Diogo Dalot chase
Bayern Munich and Real Madrid will reportedly rival each other for the services of Manchester United star Diogo Dalot.
According to TEAMtalk, Bayern Munich have emerged as serious contenders to sign Manchester United’s Diogo Dalot, joining Real Madrid in the race for the versatile full-back. The Portuguese international has caught the attention of both clubs with his consistency, durability, and ability to operate effectively on either defensive flank.
Real Madrid have been monitoring Dalot for some time as part of their contingency plans in case their pursuit of Liverpool’s Trent Alexander-Arnold fails. Bayer Leverkusen’s Jeremie Frimpong is also on their shortlist, but Dalot’s tactical flexibility makes him an appealing option.
Meanwhile, Bayern’s new boss, Vincent Kompany, has reportedly been impressed by the 25-year-old’s reliability and defensive discipline, making him a potential target for the Bundesliga giants.
Diogo Dalot: A versatile and durable asset
One of Dalot’s standout attributes is his durability — he has not missed a game due to injury since February 2023, showcasing an elite level of physical conditioning. Inspired by Cristiano Ronaldo’s rigorous approach to fitness and recovery, Dalot has fine-tuned his preparation, allowing him to be one of the most dependable players in Manchester United’s squad.
Beyond his fitness, his ability to play on both flanks has made him an indispensable asset for multiple managers at Old Trafford. This season, he has clocked more Premier League minutes than any United outfield player, second only to goalkeeper Andre Onana.
Defensively, Dalot ranks among the league’s best in interceptions, tackles, and clearances, while also contributing offensively with seven goals and 13 assists during his time at Manchester United.
His impressive performances in the 2023/24 season earned him the Players’ Player of the Season award, underlining the respect he commands from his teammates. Given his reliability and well-rounded skill set, it is no surprise that clubs of Bayern Munich and Real Madrid’s stature are keen to secure his services.
