The Sunday Times reckon that Utd are interested:
F365MANCHESTER UNITED TO NAB NASRI FROM ARSENAL?
As if it couldn't get any messier at Arsenal, now they've got to fret about Samir Nasri.
The Sunday Times reports that Nasri 'has left Arsenal in a worrying state of limbo by failing to sign a lucrative new contract with the club. With Cesc Fabregas a continued transfer target for Barcelona and Real Madrid, Arsenal face the prospect of a summer fending off interest in their two most productive outfield players.
'Both Manchester United and Chelsea are in the market for a midfield playmaker and have been alerted to the Nasri's potential availability. In Serie A, Internazionale have asked to be kept informed of developments with the France midfielder as they prepare improvements to their squad.'
But how the blazes did Arsenal get into this situation?
'Nasri's situation is particularly perplexing as Arsenal believed they had agreement on a new four-season deal that would have almost doubled the 23-year-old's annual gross salary to £5m. Before Nasri formally signed the new contract, however, Arsenal were knocked out of the Champions League by Barcelona, lost the League Cup final to Birmingham City, and exited the FA Cup to United.
'It is understood that Nasri's agent Jean-Pierre Bernes is now seeking assurances on Arsenal's summer transfer strategy as well as improved financial terms for a client nominated for the PFA's player of the year award.'
Frankly, who can blame him?
Interestingly, it's also claimed that ManYoo 'are in the market for at least two new midfielders and regard Nasri as an alternative to Inter Milan and Holland playmaker Wesley Sneijder.'
Hmmm.
