Man Utd: Diogo Dalot says he wants to build his career in defence
Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is ready to sell Jose Mourinho favourite Diogo Dalot in the summer transfer window. The Red Devils are ready for a busy window after securing a top four spot and Champions League football for next season.
United are expected to make numerous signings, with Borussia Dortmund winger Jadon Sancho at the top of their wishlist.
Talks are ongoing between United and Dortmund, with the German side digging their heels in over the transfer fee.
United could also sign Aston Villa captain Jack Grealish.
The 24-year-old kept Villa up this season and United are eyeing the playmaker.

However, United have baulked at Villa's £80m asking price for their star man.
While United are looking to make additions, Old Trafford boss Solskjaer is ready to get rid of the deadwood.
According to Football Insider, Solskjaer is set to offload Dalot this summer.
Mourinho brought the Portugal Under-21 international to Old Trafford during his final transfer window at the club, with the now-Tottenham boss claiming Dalot would be United's right-back for years to come.
However, Solskjaer has deemed the 21-year-old surplus to requirements following the arrival of Aaron Wan-Bissaka.
