Dalot: Playing with Ronaldo is a dream

Dalot has spoken of his admiration for Ronaldo on many occasions and once said it was a ‘dream’ to play with him.

Back in October 2021, he told Man United’s official website: “My first memory was when he was at United, that’s when I learnt all about him [Ronaldo] and really liked the way he played.

“I’ve spoken many times about Cristiano – he was a big reference for me growing up and then having the opportunity to meet him in the national team, and now being his team-mate. It’s a very good achievement for me too because when you grow up you want to play with the best and, playing with the best, it’s a very proud moment in my career.”
