Arsenal boss Wenger: Nasri deal after Euros

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger admits any deal for Olympique Marseille star Samir Nasri won't happen until after Euro2008.

"Nasri, he interests me," Wenger told RMC. "I hope I will do it after the Euros.

"It is more complicated now because the wage differences [between the French and the English league] are not as big as they used to be.

"Just watch [Karim] Benzema. He is 20 and recently signed a new deal.

"It is very difficult [to transfer players from the French league] but England is considered one of the two top leagues and the best players want to play against the best players."
