Man Utd defender Diogo Dalot ‘wanted in Fiorentina transfer on loan with £8m option-to-buy’ as struggles continue
MANCHESTER UNITED full-back Diogo Dalot is reportedly wanted by Fiorentina after failing to nail down a starting spot at Old Trafford.
The Red Devils defender has featured more under Ralf Rangnick than he did during Ole Gunnar Solskjaer‘s time at the club.
He has started 11 Premier League games this season, including 10 out of 12 matches between December and February.
But since then he has managed just one league appearance in four games.
And while he did enjoy a lengthy run in the team, Dalot’s form was not such that he made himself undroppable.
As a result, he could find himself being shown the exit door in the summer.

And according to Firenzeviola, Serie A side Fiorentina are eyeing up a loan move with an option to buy.
Dalot spent the 2020/21 campaign in Italy with AC Milan where he made 21 league appearances for the seven-time European champions.
Now he could be poised for another Italian move.
Fiorentina are reportedly interested in a loan deal with a clause of £8million if they wish to make the deal permanent.

This is not the first time Dalot has been linked with a move away from the Theatre of Dreams.
Last summer, Borussia Dortmund were said to be keen on acquiring his services.
But Solskjaer blocked the deal as he wanted a back-up option to Aaron Wan-Bissaka, particularly after Brandon Williams was loaned out to Norwich.
