Ferdinand talks up qualities of Man Utd target Nasri

Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand has admitted his great admiration for Arsenal's unsettled star Samir Nasri. Nasri has refused to rule out a move to the Premier League champions and Ferdinand has praised the 23-year-old.

He said: "Samir Nasri is an excellent player who has a good technique and a huge amount of talent. And he scores goals.

"For me, he is one of the best players right now. I think he even won the title of best French football player at international level.

"The French have a history of good players here. Thierry Henry has been fantastic. Just like Cantona. And let's not forget Marcel Desailly."
