What we know

AC Milan, Inter Milan and Juventus have enquired about Diogo Dalot, according to Gazzetta.it on 21 Oct; the Portuguese right‑back’s United contract runs to June 2028. The reports describe only enquiries, not a bid or a specific window.

Gazzetta.it broke the story on 21 Oct, saying the three clubs had made inquiries but nothing concrete had happened. TNT Sports echoed the line that day, citing Gazzetta. On 22 Oct four outlets, including CaughtOffside and MSN, reported renewed interest, three of them attributing the information to Gazzetta. All four outlets described the interest as preliminary. Gazzetta.it stresses that nothing concrete has materialised, and SempreMilan adds that no formal moves have been made yet. Both outlets agree the situation is at an early stage.

Gazzetta.it says the situation remains at an early stage.
