Nani was a dynamic and flamboyant Portuguese winger known for his explosive pace, acrobatic goals and fearless dribbling. He emerged at Sporting CP before a long spell at Manchester United, where he won multiple league titles and the Champions League, often deputising for and complementing his compatriot Cristiano Ronaldo.
A European champion with Portugal in 2016, he combined flair with a fierce shot and a taste for the spectacular, remaining one of the most eye-catching wide players of his time.
