Nani is ready to leave Manchester United.

The Guardian says Nani's inability to fill the void left by Cristiano Ronaldo at Manchester United has led to the Portugal international exploring the possibilities of a move to Spain or Italy in the January transfer window.

He has been linked with Benfica, where United are keen on Angel di Maria.

Nani is reluctant to move back to Portugal but his agent, Jorges Mendes, has sounded out possible buyers in Spain and Italy.
