5 world-class football players who have lost their charisma

#4 Luis Nani

The Portuguese International is only a memory.

He was often known to have one of the best playmaking abilities in the world. With more than just delivering crosses or scoring goals, Nani was the pivot that balanced Manchester United from the flank. Ghosting into goalscoring positions and creating opportunities for the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo and Wayne Rooney, Nani has had his good days as a football player.

The Portuguese International has had his trophy cabinet filled with silverware; From winning three Premier League titles to the Champion's League honor way back in 2008, to multiple domestic titles, Nani has it all. Often considered as a reflection of his fellow International teammate Cristiano Ronaldo, his pace, agility and celebrational aspects made him, at the time, one of the best footballers in the world.

But with time, the Portuguese International was seen to tumble through multiple clubs at a very young age. From Fenerbahce to Sporting CP, he experienced less play-time and switching between clubs over the past few years, Nani is yet another football personality who the newer generation of football fans aren't totally aware of.
