Arsenal could sell Samir Nasri to Manchester City BEFORE Cesc Fabregas joins Barcelona.
The Daily Mail says Nasri could beat Fabregas out of the Arsenal exit as Arsene Wenger faces losing his top two stars in the space of 48 hours.
While Barcelona are closing in on a deal to finally land Fabregas, it is understood that Nasri is on the brink of signing for mega-rich Manchester City.
City are confident they will land Nasri in a £22million deal by Friday - and Arsenal could have over £50m in the kitty by the weekend if Fabregas seals his proposed switch to Barcelona.
