Man United Fans Worried After Seeing Diogo Dalot’s Latest Photo
Manchester United‘s latest signing, Diogo Dalot, was seen in crutches at a recent event.
The 19-year old completed his dream move from Porto in the early days of this summer. The Red Devils spent £19 million for the young right-back, who Jose Mourinho considers the best in Europe.
However, reports suggest that the player completed his medical while recovering from an injury. In fact, photos from earlier today confirmed that the reports were true, as Dalot was seen moving around in crutches.

They are confident that the player will be back before the side leaves for the pre-season tour in America.
