Manchester United have firmly closed the door on any potential summer exit for right-back Diogo Dalot, despite ongoing speculation linking him with a move to Real Madrid, according to reports from multiple outlets including The Athletic and ESPN.
The Portuguese international, 27, has been a key figure under manager Erik ten Hag, making 38 appearances across all competitions in the 2025-26 season. United view Dalot as a crucial part of their long-term plans and have not engaged in any talks regarding his departure.
Real Madrid had been monitoring Dalot's situation as a potential option to reinforce their full-back positions, but sources indicate that the La Liga giants have not made a formal approach. United's stance remains firm: Dalot is not for sale at any price this summer.
Dalot, who joined United from Porto in 2018, has two years remaining on his current contract, with the club holding an option to extend for a further season. His consistent performances have made him one of the first names on the teamsheet at Old Trafford.
