Diogo Dalot took part in a question-and-answer session with Manchester United fans and listed some of the aspects that allowed him to gain consistency and be in great physical shape to assert himself this season at Old Trafford, after his stint at Milan last season. .
Among the routines and points he paid attention to in his physical preparations, the former Porto right-back also revealed a myth he acquired with Cristiano Ronaldo.
“Every player has his myths. To be honest, I don’t have much. Now, it’s a funny story, before matches, when we are at the hotel, I always drink coffee with Cristiano,” he said, quoted by the club’s official channels.
“Now it’s a routine. He dragged me to the coffee shop because he wasn’t a big fan of coffee, but now I am. Not even talking a little. Sometimes we’re in the hotel for a long time, so we leave the room just to talk and try to focus on the game”, added the Portugal international, who spoke about His focus is on improving performance.
“Since I started playing football as a professional, I have always tried to maintain my routine. Not only mentally, but also physically, to be able to be at the best level. Especially last season and this season, I took steps on my level in preparation for training and matches. Both in nutrition Or sleep or music, before and after training, I can say that this was my support off the field to be able to play on the field”, he explained.
The 22-year-old made 20 appearances in 2021/2022, having started at 14.
