Manchester United defender Diogo Dalot has joined AC Milan on a loan deal.

The 21-year-old right-back will stay with the Serie A club for the rest of the season, United announced on Sunday.

He has made 35 first-team appearances for United, but only one this season as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has also used Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Timothy Fosu-Mensah at right-back.

Dalot wrote on Twitter: “I’ve learned a lot in these 2 years. I’ll be rooting for you, reds”.

Dalot joins team-mate Andreas Pereira in leaving United for a loan deal in Italy this season.
