In his column in the Players Tribune, former Man United winger Nani opens up on his first days at United when he shared the home with Cristiano Ronaldo and Anderson.
"My agent, Jorge Mendes, wrote down the names of all the clubs and said, 'For me, the best team you can choose is this one'. He pointed at Manchester United," Nani recalls.
"Before I knew it, I was looking for a house in Manchester. At the start I was supposed to move into a hotel, but Jorge asked me 'Would you mind staying with Cristiano?' So I moved in with him and Anderson, who had just arrived at Manchester United.
"Cristiano had a swimming pool, a ping-pong table, a tennis court — and every day we would compete at something. By the time Anderson and I left that house, we had become allergic to defeat."
At United, Nani registered 230 games between 2007 and 2015. He scored 40 goals and provided 74 assists in all competitions for Red Devils.
