Former Manchester United winger Nani is eyeing a Euro 2020 spot with Portugal after missing out on the World Cup two years ago.

The 33-year-old, who made 230 appearances for the Red Devils, is currently plying his trade at Orlando City in the MLS.

The MLS season got underway last weekend and Nani is hoping some good performances over the coming months can see him break back into the international fold.

'[The current Portugal team is] a great generation,' Nani told Goal.

'You can see some quality from the young players from that next generation, but you know that every time there's a competition, every time there's a World Cup, a European Cup, you need a mix of a young team and experienced players to match the difficulty of that competition.

'For sure, it's a possibility, if I do well and I'm at my best, there's a chance to come back to the national team, so I hope so!'

Nani last represented Portugal three years ago but was part of the squad that won Euro 2016 in France.

The wideman played the full 90 minutes as Portugal overcame France 1-0 after extra-time four years ago.
