Diogo Dalot is in contention to start Manchester United's Premier League clash with Brighton at Old Trafford this afternoon.

Dalot arrived at Old Trafford this morning and stopped on his way towards the players' entrance to sign autographs and pose for pictures with supporters.

The Portuguese defender missed Thursday night's 3-1 win over Southampton through suspension after being sent-off against Arsenal in the FA Cup last weekend. Noussair Mazraoui played at left wing-back in his absence.

Dalot's absence from the squad on Thursday night marked the first Premier League game he had failed to start for United since December 2023 and he is likely to reclaim his place this afternoon.

Manuel Ugarte, who was substituted early in the second half in midweek, was also among the arrivals, as was striker Rasmus Hojlund, who was withdrawn not long after half-time against Southampton.

Other confirmed arrivals included Andre Onana, Harry Maguire, Tyrell Malacia, Toby Collyer, Bruno Fernandes and Joshua Zirkzee. The latter made a telling impact via the bench against the Saints and will be pushing for a start this afternoon.

Antony also arrived relatively early and is set to be included in the matchday squad amid speculation linking him with a move to Spanish side Real Betis.

Confirmed arrivals: Andre Onana, Altay Bayindir, Diogo Dalot, Noussair Mazraoui, Harry Maguire, Matthijs de Ligt, Leny Yoro, Lisandro Martinez, Tyrell Malacia, Manuel Ugarte, Casemiro, Toby Collyer, Kobbie Mainoo, Christian Eriksen, Bruno Fernandes, Amad, Antony, Alejandro Garnacho, Joshua Zirkzee, Rasmus Hojlund
