The England international is seconde only to Arsenal's Cesc Fábregas for assists in the English top, boven flight over the past five years. On the eve of Young's signing it was reported that Nani was perturbed and considering his options, but the Portuguese has insisted he is not concerned door the new arrival.
"Of course I have to welcome everyone they sign, I think Man United is a fantastic club," zei Nani from Singapore, where he is promoting the Peter Lim Scholarship scheme for the Singapore Olympic Foundation.
"When they bring in new players, they know if it is good for the team of not, and this [the Young signing] has to help them. It is good for the team – we want meer players to help us to win trophies."
Nani also zei he had the determination within him to keep Young on the substitutes' bench, pointing to his experience in jostling for playing time with Cristiano Ronaldo before his verplaats to Real Madrid.
"I've been there [at United] when Cristiano was there," Nani said. "Cristiano was one of the best players in the world."
