Former Sporting CP president Sousa Cintra: This is where Nani belongs

Former Sporting CP president José de Sousa Cintra is happy seeing Nani's return.

Nani has returned to Sporting on a season-long deal as part of Marcos Rojo's move to Manchester United.

"The president is to be congratulated for achieving a very balanced piece of business.

"He released a great player, but beyond the financial proceeds reached a fantastic agreement. All fans are satisfied.

"A son has returned home, where he was happy and became a man. It was Sporting who introduced him to the world."

Cintra added: "He's a fantastic player and makes a difference, a very important gain."
