Nani’s son has signed with Sporting CP as he joins the team that his father made 76 appearances for in his youth.
Nani was present to see his 9-year-old son, Lucas, put pen to paper at Sporting recently in a fairytale move for the youngster.
Nani, who now plies his trade in Australia with Melbourne Victory, spent two seasons with the Lisbon side from 2005 until 2007 before he earned his big move to Manchester United in the latter year.
Nani celebrated the move by posting a picture of him and his son on Twitter, with comments aplenty congratulating the winger on his move.
