Portuguese full-back Diogo Dalot has reportedly been told he can leave Manchester United following the arrival of Aaron Wan-Bissaka, according to Evening Standard
United's pursuit of the Crystal Palace right back concluded on Saturday when it was announced he had joined in a £50million deal.
And following Wan-Bissaka's arrival, the Evening Standard report that United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has 'told Dalot he can leave' with his opportunities expected to be limited.
Dalot arrived last summer from Porto in an £18m deal but was not thrust into the side straight away, instead he was allowed to find his feet and settle in England.
He made 18 appearances for the club last season but was largely used in a more attacking right-wing role given his impressive crossing.
Fans may have expected Dalot to compete with Wan-Bissaka for the right back spot but the Evening Standard report that Solskjaer has rendered the player surplus to requirements.
Solskjaer has been keen to build a squad in his image - and not that of his predecessors - and he has shifted the club's transfer policy towards homegrown talents including Wan-Bissaka and Daniel James.
