..LONDON: Winger Nani is offering to drop his wage demands in an attempt to save his future at Manchester United, reported The Sun.


The Portuguese and his advisors are willing to accept his basic wage stays the same while the rest is made up by bonuses.

It was revealed on Wednesday how his prospects are in the balance at Old Trafford. 

He will be axed for today's home game against Fulham after his poor showing in the 1-0 defeat by Everton at Goodison Park on Monday.

That came on the back of a bad end to last season for Nani, which was why initial demands for a new contract were rejected out of hand by the Red Devils.

Nani has two years left on his £90,000-a-week deal but wanted that boosted by nearly 50 per cent to more than £130,000.

United told the player’s representatives to forget it and have not gone back with an offer.

Now nervous Nani is ready to drop the demands.  He wants to keep his basic the same and accept around £30,000 for each appearance.

Those close to Nani fear the contract dispute may be affecting his form and he has thought about a move.

But United would not sell unless they were offered more than £25million.

Nani needs to get back to the form that made him one of manager Alex Ferguson’s favorites.

Ferguson chose him ahead of Ashley Young on Monday.

Again he disappointed, getting booked early, failing to create a decent chance and being subbed by Young with 12 minutes left.

Young will start against Fulham.
