Diogo Dalot has boldly suggested Manchester United can win the Premier League under new boss Ruben Amorim.

Amorim has overseen a turbulent first three months in charge at Old Trafford with United currently sitting 13th in the table.

United have not lifted the league title since Sir Alex Ferguson's final season in 2013. However, Dalot believes Amorim has shown the group enough for them to feel he is the person to restore past glories.

Speaking to the United's local supporters' club via the club website, he said: "With this manager, I think we can win a Premier League. Realistically, we can win.

"But then it becomes the most difficult thing to hear as a fan: that it will take time.

"I understand. I'm a player but, at the same time, I know what you feel. I know that this club is thirsty to win and everybody wants to win.

"We're not talking about cups – I know that is important, to win trophies – but what brought this club to what it is is big trophies.

"I think we can win a Premier League with this manager but at the same time, we need to create an environment where he has everything set for what he wants from the players. We need to also adapt to the system. It will take some time.

"Obviously we cannot think too much ahead but I'm really convinced that the way he conducts himself, the way that he communicates with players, the idea that he has... we can do it."
