Hands off Nani! United boss Fergie insists flop winger is going nowhere

Sir Alex Ferguson insists Nani will be part of his plans for next season despite the Manchester United winger failing to make an impact during this campaign. Nani was substituted at half-time during the 5-2 win over Tottenham at the weekend, summing up a season in which he has started only six Premier League games - and not played the full 90 minutes in any. Staying put: Manchester United winger Nani (left) is going nowhere Nani didn't even bother to watch the conclusion of United's second half comeback, choosing instead to make an early exit from Old Trafford on Saturday evening. The snub to his team-mates prompted suggestions Ferguson may seek to offload the 22-year-old, who signed for £14million two years ago. But the United manager insisted Nani would prove himself next season. Ferguson said: 'He has been unlucky this season. The form of Park Ji-Sung has been absolutely outstanding and most of the time has kept Nani out of the team.

'But he will be here next season and he will do very well next season for us.'
