Former Manchester United star Nani recently enjoyed a picturesque breakfast with his old manager Sir Alex Ferguson in Portugal, a reunion that is sure to evoke fond memories for United fans. Nani shared a heartfelt post on X, featuring a photo of the two catching up over coffee.

This meeting comes just ten days after Nani announced his retirement from football at the age of 38, concluding his career after a final stint at his hometown club, Estrela Amadora. In his post, Nani wrote: “Delicious breakfast – this time in Portugal – with the great and special company of Sir Alex Ferguson. Amazing time, great memories. See you again soon, Boss.”

Nani is best known for his time at Manchester United, where he gained cult hero status as part of Ferguson’s serial-winning team in the late 2000s. Ferguson was instrumental in bringing Nani to Old Trafford, signing the winger from Sporting CP for £21 million in June 2007.

During his remarkable eight years at United, Nani won a Champions League title in his first season and secured four Premier League titles. He dazzled fans with his flair, becoming renowned for his trickery and occasional long-range goals.

A key player in Ferguson’s later years, Nani scored 41 goals in 230 appearances for the club. His accolades include not only the Champions League and Premier League titles but also two League Cups over his eight-season tenure.

After a loan return to Sporting in the 2014/15 season, Nani departed United permanently for Fenerbahce the following year, but his legacy at Manchester United remains firmly entrenched in the hearts of supporters.
