Former Manchester United star Nani has been accused of stealing a fan's shirt after being asked to sign it.
Nani is still going strong at the age of 37, where he now plays for Portuguese club Estrela Amadora, having enjoyed spells at the likes of Man United, Fenerbahce and Valencia in his career.
But he's reportedly found himself in hot water at Estrela Amadora, where he was involved in an incident with a fan over a Portugal shirt.

The alleged incident took place outside the club's stadium and has since been reported to local police.
A video shared online shows Nani conversing with a fan while in the driver's seat of his car.
A photo of the police report was uploaded on Reddit, which has since been deleted, and translated into English.
It is claimed that a fan asked the winger to sign an unofficial version of the jersey the national team wore during Euro 2016, which was purchased on Vinted.
Nani is then alleged to have taken the jersey away from the fan before driving off.
The now-deleted post on Reddit claimed: "Good evening, As the title says, unfortunately today, an athlete from Estrela da Amadora stole a shirt from me that was meant to be autographed by him.
"About three or four weeks ago, I was browsing Vinted and found an UNOFFICIAL match shirt (not worn by him), but it had the patches applied to make it look like a match shirt.
"The seller clearly stated that it wasn’t official, nor was it worn in a match. I bought the shirt and received it on Wednesday.
"Excited, today, Thursday, I went to the Estrela da Amadora stadium after training to get his autograph.
"As soon as he saw it, he immediately asked where it came from and where I got it from.
"I consistently explained that I had bought it and even showed proof that it had nothing to do with him or his belongings.
"He grabbed the shirt, asked to take it off my hanger, then put it on the passenger seat of his car, rolled up the window, and drove off.
"For a few minutes, I was in complete shock at what had just happened…
"Even the people around me said they would have gone straight to the police. So that’s what I did.
"And some people even recorded video and gave me their contact details to serve as witnesses.
"I just froze there for a moment. I went to the police, filed a report, and now I have the case number.
"I fully intend to get the shirt back, or at the very least, my money. What can I do at this point? I know where he’ll be tomorrow. Should I call the police and have them confront him to get my shirt back?
"I’m feeling really down and have no idea what to do...
"(P.S. I have video footage of Nani taking the shirt, putting it in his car, and driving off.)"
SPORTbible has contacted Estrela Amadora for comment while The Sun has reached out to Nani without a response.
