It sounds unbelievable, yet it’s true: Ruben Amorim and Diogo Dalot reportedly share a common ancestor, a French circus artist from the 19th century. An unexpected and fascinating family connection revealed by the genealogy site Geneall.
According to Geneall, Ruben Amorim, one of Portugal’s most highly regarded coaches, and Manchester United full-back Diogo Dalot are both great-great-grandsons of Carlos Dallot, a French circus performer who travelled across Europe before settling permanently in Braga.
Coincidentally, Braga is also the hometown of both Amorim and Dalot, linking two major figures of modern Portuguese football through an astonishing family lineage.

Dalot had previously mentioned that his surname was of French origin.
This genealogical discovery confirms it and adds a delightful twist to the careers of the two men. With one becoming a coaching reference in Portugal and the other an established international at the highest level, this unexpected family connection is already delighting fans of quirky football stories.
