I held talks with Inter, PSG - Man City's Nasri

Samir Nasri has revealed that he held discussions with both Inter Milan and Paris Saint-Germain prior to his move to Manchester City.

The French midfielder joined City from Arsenal last week but says that the Eastlands club was not the only one interested in his services.

"I talked to Leonardo because he wanted me at Internazionale, " Nasri told Telefoot.

"(At PSG) the situation was a bit more complex because I told him about my choice for Manchester City.

"He had already signed (Javier) Pastore (from Palermo) and it was a little difficult (for them) to find funds to invest and be able to sign me."
