Nani Told To Commit Or Leave Manchester United

Reports suggest that United are looking to find interested parties to buy the 25 year-old Portuguese international.

With Ritchie De Laet, Matthew James and Michael Owen all to be shown the exit at Old Trafford in the last few days, it may surprise many to hear that the club could be looking to sell their key Portuguese winger Nani. After just losing out to rivals Manchester City in the title race, as well crashing out of the Champions League and finishing the season trophy less, Fergie believes he needs to make vital changes to his squad. Fans will have been disappointed with no trophies entering Old Trafford this season, although they will not be too happy with key players leaving. Reports suggest that the club are looking to find interested parties to buy the 25 year-old Portuguese international, if contract negotiations collapse. Nani€™s current deal will see him at the club until 2014, but it seems Sir Alex is keen for Nani to state his loyalties and commit himself to the club. Fergie€™s new Manchester United team is revolved around youth with the likesof Fabio, Rafeal, Cleverly, Jones, Smalling, Evans, Welbeck and De Gea. Clubs from across Europe have stated interest in Nani over the previous seasons. Although it looks like Athletico Madrid will spend part of the money they received from Manchester United for De Gea and Manchester City for Aguero, to grab the 25 year old away from Manchester. Nani arrived in 2008 from Sporting Lisbon. Ever since his arrival he was overshadowed by his Portugal teammate Cristiano Ronaldo. However when Ronaldo left Old Trafford it seemed to be a gift to Nani and with more appearances and more goals for the club he has not disappointed.
