Bayern Munich, Borussia Dortmund interested in Manchester United’s Diogo Dalot

After setting the transfer world on fire on Friday with the acquisition of Cristiano Ronaldo from Juventus, Manchester United might be looking to shed some salary. According to a report from Sky UK (as captured by German outlet Tz), both Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund are contemplating a move for Red Devils’ right-back Diogo Dalot:

Julian Nagelsmann apparently wants a right-back with an offensive urge, such as the 22-year-old Portuguese Dalot. According to Sky UK, in addition to Munich, BVB is also interested. A loan with a subsequent purchase option is conceivable, but rumor has it that it would also be available for 15-20 million euros.

This is not the first time that Bayern Munich has been linked with Dalot, though. Back in 2018, when the right-back was with Porto, the Bavarians lobbed an inquiry his way.

From a Bayern Munich perspective, it would seem highly doubtful that the Bavarians would be in a position to make a move. Closely linked to both Marcel Sabitzer and Jonas Hofmann — and loosely linked to Matthias Ginter — Bayern Munich likely would have Dalot rated below that trio. Dalot is valued at €10 million on Transfermarkt.

At best, this seems like “connecting the dots” from Sky UK.
