Manchester City manager Roberto Mancini has his fingers crossed regarding the signing of Arsenal's Samir Nasri.
The Frenchman has been linked with a move to Eastlands for most of the summer and the City boss hopes the club can tie him up prior to the transfer window closing.
"I hope we can close it very quickly now, but I don't know the [latest] news about him because my concentration is on the game (against Bolton away)," Mancini said.
"But I hope [it is done quickly], also because the market finishes in the next 10 days.
"I don't know why, but it is probably because Nasri is a good player, or because there is some problem.
"We have a problem because we don't sell other players, but we need other players to complete the squad. Until we sell the players that are here it's a problem."
