Manchester United fullback Diogo Dalot was left proud being named the club's Players' Player of the Year.

Dalot was voted by teammates as the best performer this season.

He told manutd.com, "For me, it's even more special [than the main award]. I have a lot of consideration for the fans; they are a big part of me and the biggest part of this club.

"But my team-mates are the ones who see each other every single day. We have to come here and we still have to fight, and we still have to share these moments when things are not going well, and when the things are going well.

"This, ultimately, is my second family and this recognition by your team-mates, I think it's really special, because they see you every day, they know the work that you put in behind the scenes."

Dalot admits his superb performance in the FA Cup victory over Liverpool was a season highlight.

"As soon as the game finished, I saw people crying at the stadium," he added. "That makes you feel special, just to be a part of it and know that you made a little bit of part of that day for them. That makes us feel special sometimes."
