"Man United have struggled throughout much of 2025, though, and it was hoped a full pre-season under head coach Amorim and the arrival of a new attacking trio would galvanise the club.

"In the lead up to that match, Portuguese international Diogo Dalot has withdrawn from the national team squad citing 'muscular discomfort'. Dalot has appeared in each of the team's three Premier League fixtures so far this term, starting in their season opener against Arsenal, coming off the bench in the 1-1 draw with Fulham and completing the full 90 minutes versus Scott Parker's Clarets last weekend. The 26-year-old also featured throughout Man United's Carabao Cup exit to Grimsby Town just over a week ago."
Manchester United will visit the Etihad Stadium after the September international break seeking back-to-back Premier League victories. The Red Devils secured a stoppage-time 3-2 win over Burnley courtesy of Bruno Fernandes' penalty. Diogo Dalot withdrew from Portugal's squad with 'muscular discomfort' and may miss the upcoming Manchester City match. Dalot started the season opener against Arsenal, played as a substitute at Fulham, and completed 90 minutes versus Burnley; he also featured in the Carabao Cup loss to Grimsby Town. Head coach Amorim faces pressure after heavy summer spending on attackers. If Dalot is absent, Amad Diallo is likely to deputise at right wing-back.
