Nani heads for crunch Utd talks

NANI wants assurances over his Manchester United future after the arrival of Ashley Young.

Portugul winger Nani was already feeling uneasy after he was left out of United's Champions League final side by boss Alex Ferguson.

Now, with the £20million signing of England winger Young, he will be fearing more time on the bench - with the former Aston Villa player, 25, set to start the season.

Both Juventus and Inter Milan are interested in Nani, who topped the Premier League assists table with 18 and hit 10 goals last season.

There were rumours mid-season that the player was looking for a new challenge away from Old Trafford, something which he dismissed in the wake of the 3-1 Wembley defeat to Barcelona.

Nani, 24, said: "I'm very happy at United. This has been my best season but I can do much better.

"I'm still young and will get more opportunities."

That was before the high-profile signing of Young, while Nani was already being pushed out of the team by the return to form and fitness of Ji-Sung Park.

United return to training on July 4 and Nani will seek crunch talks with Ferguson to see exactly how much first-team action he should expect in the new season.
