Man City chiefs convinced they can still prise Nasri from Arsenal

Manchester City have not given up on landing Arsenal midfielder Samir Nasri.

The Daily Star Sunday says City boss Roberto Mancini is prepared to risk the fury of Arsene Wenger with another bid for Arsenal midfielder Nasri. Mancini has admitted privately in Dublin that he wants the French star and Italian winger Alessio Cerci before the league season kicks off.

Wenger reacted furiously when Mancini publicly touted a move for the £23m-rated Nasri earlier this month.

But the City boss, set for up to three more signings before the transfer window closes, isn't afraid to go back in for Nasri, 24, who is out of contract at the end of the new season.
