Bruno Fernandes has seemingly revealed Diogo Dalot's new nickname at Manchester United, on video footage of the players in pre-season training.
United have had a successful tour of Thailand and Australia, winning three of their four games, while drawing with Aston Villa on Friday. They beat Liverpool, Crystal Palace and Melbourne Victory before that 2-2 draw with Steven Gerrard's side.
The United stars are now due to fly back to Europe, with half the squad travelling to Oslo on Saturday to face Rayo Vallecano, while the rest of the team will remain in Manchester when United face Atletico Madrid at Old Trafford in their final pre-season game.

United have yet to sign a right-back this summer, and although reports have suggested they may still be in for one, we're less than two weeks away from the season opener. Dalot appears to be ahead of Aaron Wan-Bissaka in the pecking order.
And clearly a favourite among teammates, Bruno Fernandes revealed Dalot's nickname as 'The Train'. You can view the video here.
