Manchester United winger Nani has signed a new five-year contract with the Old Trafford outfit. There had been speculation the Portugal international would leave United this summer. Instead, he has signed a deal that will keep him at Old Trafford until 2018.

"I'm really pleased Nani has re-signed for the next five years," said United boss David Moyes. "He has great ability and experience and beyond his 26 years."

The Portuguese winger signed for United in May 2007 and has won four Premier League titles, two League Cups, was part of the squad that won the Champions League.

"Playing at United has been a fantastic experience for me," he said. "When I came to the club, I never imagined the success we have enjoyed. Training every day with top players who want to win trophies every year is a great motivation to me.

"I'm very happy that the new manager has shown this faith in me and I'm looking forward to helping the team compete for more honours this season."
