Growing up in Portugal, footballers don’t come much bigger than our no.7 and Dalot is now lining up alongside the country’s greatest-ever player both at club and international level.
In an exclusive interview with Inside United, the official club magazine, our no.20 speaks about what it's like to play with Cristiano and how he followed him throughout his childhood.
Although Dalot eventually became a full-back and not an attacker like Ronaldo, the 22-year-old says he was a big source of inspiration growing up.
"My first memory was when he was at United, that’s when I learnt all about him and really liked the way he played," the former Porto man says.
