After failing to convince new Manchester United boss David Moyes that he is worthy of a regular starting place at Old Trafford, winger Nani is keen to depart the reigning Premier League champions and has set his sights on Juventus.

The Portuguese international has made just eight league appearances during the Scot’s reign this term, but regardless of some disappointing displays by the team there is little sign that his first-team opportunities will improve.

Now, despite interest from several clubs across Europe such as La Liga side Valencia, TuttoSport are reporting that the 27-year-old has been flattered by the Bianconeri’s interest and has prioritised a move to Turin ahead of any other.

Unfortunately for the former Sporting Lisbon man the Serie A club are believed to need to fund any deal by offloading one, if not both, of Mirko Vucinic and Fabio Quagliarella.

What is unclear is exactly how much the English club may want for Nani, who joined them for a massive €25.5 million back in the summer of 2007.
