Manchester United defender Diogo Dalot reportedly wants to stay and fight for his place in the Red Devils team.

The 22-year-old continues to struggle for opportunities over Aaron Wan-Bissaka and has been tipped to return to Italy with either Roma or AC Milan.

Dalot was a regular during his loan spell with the Rossoneri - making 33 appearances in all competitions last term - but it remains to be seen how the sacking of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer will impact his Red Devils future.

According to The Sun, Dalot is determined to make a name for himself at Old Trafford and is convinced that his future lies at the Theatre of Dreams.

The report adds that Dalot is hoping to play his way into Michael Carrick's good books before a new interim manager takes charge, although he was an unused substitute in Tuesday's Champions League win over Villarreal.

Dalot is yet to start a Premier League game for United this term and is due to become a free agent in under two years' time. body check tags ::
