🚨🗣️ Diogo Dalot: “At that time, I LIKED Milan so much that I thought maybe we could make something work.
“They really WANTED me, and I also had meetings with other clubs. One day I got a TEXT from Cristiano.
‘Kid, STAY. I’m coming BACK to Manchester.’
“He was saying that United is the best club in the world, that we would get back to the top if only we changed a few things. He was going to help me and we’d play a lot of games together.
“I talked to my agent. I talked to Claudia.
Mourinho wanted me there for 10 years. How could we leave after two?
“That season with Cristiano was when I really started to grow as a player and as a person. I lost count of the number of predictions he got right, because he knows so well what it takes to go to the top.
“If anyone skipped a set in the gym, he would notice. We had a striker here who did really well for us in his first season, but Cristiano said, “He’s not gonna make it here.”
“I said, “Cris, he scored two goals today!”
He said, “Yeah, but he didn’t have the fire to go for the third.”
“When your rival is Messi, nothing is ever enough.” #MUFC [@TPTFootball]
