Diogo Dalot could reportedly leave Manchester United, with agent Jorge Mendes attempting to seal a transfer to Barcelona when his contract expires this summer.

Agent Jorge Mendes is reportedly attempting to engineer his client Diogo Dalot's exit from Manchester United.

The 23-year-old has emerged from a fringe player under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer to a key player for Erik ten Hag, usurping Aaron Wan-Bissaka as the club's first-choice right-back.

The Portugal international's contract expires in the summer, although the club have the option to extend it by 12 months.

However Mundo Deportivo suggest that Mendes is plotting an exit behind the scenes.

Mendes is reported to have personally endorsed the prospect of Dalot joining Barcelona next year, and hopes to use his relationship with the Camp Nou club to seal a potential deal.

The player is not interested in discussing his contract at the moment, admitting a new deal is not even on his mind right now with the World Cup on the horizon.

"Individuals will have to come [secondary] at this time and there is also a World Cup coming. I don't think that it is the time to think about this [new contract]," he told Sky Sports News.

"I'm just happy that I'm helping this club. I love to play for this club, and I think that I show that every single time I step onto Old Trafford and every time I wear this badge."

Dalot is expected to be part of Portugal's squad for this winter's World Cup in Qatar.
