Report: Everton want Nani on loan

Everton are reportedly interested in signing Manchester United winger Nani.

The 28-year-old has spent this season on loan at Portuguese giants Sporting Lisbon, but it is expected that he will return to Old Trafford this summer.

The Portugal international failed to establish himself in the plans of Red Devils manager Louis van Gaal and was sent out on loan to his former club after the first game of the Premier League season.

It is not yet clear if Nani is in Van Gaal's plans, but, with his current contract running until June 2018, it could take a sizeable fee to sign him on a permanent basis.

According to The Sun, Everton boss Roberto Martinez wants to sign Nani on loan as that will be much cheaper than paying a transfer fee.

Nani has scored 10 goals in 32 appearances for Sporting this season.
