Summary
- Nani supports his cousin Sidnei Tavares at Blackburn Rovers.
- Tavares joined Blackburn last summer from Moreirense.
- Nani believes Tavares has a brilliant future with the right mentality.

Nani, the former Manchester United winger, has publicly endorsed his cousin, Sidnei Tavares, as he continues his career at Blackburn Rovers. Tavares, a midfielder, made the move to Ewood Park last summer, signing a three-year contract.
Despite facing challenges with regular game time since returning from an injury sustained in October, Nani is optimistic about Tavares's future. He described his cousin as a talented player poised for a significant impact if he maintains the correct mentality and behavior.
Tavares, who has represented Portugal at youth levels, has yet to register a goal contribution for Blackburn. The club currently sits 18th in the Championship, just four points above the relegation zone.
