The Portuguese Nani is redundant at "Old Trafford", because David Moyes, the new manager of Manchester United, does not count on him for the next season, according to the British media.
Monaco will try to take advantage of that, which offered the English 20 million pounds in compensation.
Twenty-six-year-old Nani arrived among the "red devils" in the summer of 2007 from Sporting Lisbon, and so far he has scored 39 goals in 215 appearances for Manchester United.
However, in the season that just ended, he was in the starting line-up only seven times.
Russian billionaire Dmitri Rybolovlev, the owner of the "princes", spares no expense to build a team capable of winning the title in France.
The ranks of the new French premier league have already been strengthened by James Rodriguez and Joao Mutinjko (Porto), Radamel Falcao (Atletico Madrid) and Ricardo Carvalho (Real Madrid).
Fabio Coentrao (Real Madrid) is also expected to arrive in the coming days.
