He’s been at it again following the signing of 19-year-old Porto full-back Diogo Dalot for £17.4million.
Excited by the Portuguese player’s talent, he announced to the world: “In his age group, he is the best full-back in Europe and we all believe he has a bright future ahead of him at Manchester United.”
They, of course, have Trent Alexander-Arnold among their ranks – an exceptionally talented 19-year-old right-back.
The young Merseysider has had a brilliant campaign, making 33 appearances, including 12 in the Champions League where he started in the final against Real Madrid.
