It’s not easy settling in a new country, especially when your’e still a teenager but it seems Manchester United’s latest recruit, Diogo Dalot, has already got a hang of how to speak like a proper Mancunian.
The Red Devils uploaded a video on Twitter of the 19-year-old attempting to get a few sayings right and his attempts were pretty good actually, much to the delight of millions of United fans around the world:

Dalot, who will not be representing Portugal at the upcoming 2018 FIFA World Cup, doesn’t have much top-flight experience but is widely regarded as a fine talent.
Standing at six feet tall, the former Porto man can play at right or left back with ease and is expected to be an important member of Jose Mourinho’s squad next season.

The 19-year-old, who signed a five-year contact to stay at Old Trafford, reportedly cost United a fee of roughly £20 million and will be in action during the club’s pre-season tour in the summer.
Mourinho’s been busy in the transfer market and has looked to wrap up his business before the World Cup kicks off on June 14.
So far, the Red Devils have signed Shaktar Donetsk dynamo Fred for a fee said to have been in the region of £50 million and the aforementioned Dalot.
They are expected to sell quite a few players, with the likes of Marouane Fellaini, Matteo Darmian, Daley Blind and Luke Shaw almost certain to exit.
Club captain Michael Carrick retired at the end of last season and his void will be keenly felt as well, which suggests Mourinho will splash the cash on a number of players this summer.
