In 2021, when Dalot was called up to the Portugal squad for the Covid-delayed Euro 2020 competition, the two individuals became teammates for the first time to work together. Later that summer, Ronaldo made his way back to Old Trafford to play, which was another moment that brought the two back together. Dalot had just returned from a loan term at AC Milan at the time, and he rapidly became aware of Ronaldo’s effect in each and every games that he attended from that point on.
The most influential person I’ve ever seen in football, both on and off the field, is Cristiano Ronaldo. I’ve never actually said this before, but I consider him to be the most influential person I’ve ever seen.This is what Dalot stated in an interview with FourFourTwo.
“I consider him a friend, but it may sound strange because he is my person of inspiration and someone I have looked up to for a number of years. The first time I had a proper encounter with him was at Euro 2020, and every moment I spend with him makes me feel like I have gained more knowledge. Through his extensive experience, talent, and wisdom, I am able to gain knowledge.Continued to talk about his old comrade at Manchester United, Diogo Dalot continued to share his thoughts.

Diogo Dalot and Cristiano Ronaldo had a good time in the MU shirt. However, CR7’s fairy tale return to Old Trafford did not last long after Erik ten Hag took power. He left amid outrage from fans and moved to the Saudi Pro League with Al Nassr.
Diogo Dalot again took the starting role in the Red Devils’ squad, after convincing enough performances. The Portuguese defender has renewed his contract with MU and is an irreplaceable player on the right wing at the moment. The two will have the opportunity to reunite during the Euro preparations taking place next month, when Portugal is also one of the championship candidates of this tournament.
