Manchester United full-back Diogo Dalot has been sidelined since the start of the new season due to a hip problem, but he is now seeking specialist treatment in China.
According to reports, Dalot has traveled to Shanghai to visit Eduardo Santos, a physiotherapist who has earned the nickname 'miracle doctor' for his remarkable success in treating injuries.
Santos has a reputation for helping top players recover from serious injuries, including Arsenal defender David Luiz, who he helped to recover from a hamstring tear in 2015.
Dalot's decision to seek treatment in China comes after he was unable to feature for Manchester United this season, and he is now undergoing a 10-day treatment program with Santos.
Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has confirmed that Dalot could make a comeback after the current international break, and the youngster's ability to play in advanced wide positions has been cited as a reason for retaining him at the club.
