The son of former Manchester United winger Nani has joined Sporting CP.

Nani revealed on Thursday that his eldest son Lucas da Cunha, nine years old, has signed for Sporting, a moment of pride for the family that now sees the son following in his father's footsteps.

Nani, who is also the father of Catarina, born in 2022, started his career at Real Massamá, before moving to Sporting, in 2002, at the age of 16.

It was there that he later came to prominence and made the leap to Manchester United.
