Nani Fined and Suspended For Headbutt

Filed Under Man Utd 

Sir Alex Ferguson was unhappy with Nani after being sent off for headbutting in Manchester United’s 4-1 win against West Ham yesterday.

As a result of a headbutt during the first half, the 21-year-old will receive a 60,000 pound fine in addition to missing the next three Premier League fixtures.

This means he will miss United’s potential title-clincher at Wigan next weekend, as well as the first two games of next season.

And Sir Alex Ferguson admits he was thoroughly disappointed in Nani’s actions, insisting the former Sporting man’s petulance tarnished an otherwise dominant display against the Hammers.

“The game was marred by the immaturity of Nani,” said the United boss. “He bought the challenge from their player and retaliated. He will learn from that.

“There is no excuse,” said the Scot. “He showed a measure of immaturity and we will deal with it.”
