Roberto Mancini looking to bring Samir Nasri to Inter Milan?

Inter Milan coach Roberto Mancini is reportedly exploring the possibility of signing Manchester City playmaker Samir Nasri.

Mancini has been a long-term fan of Nasri ever since bringing him to City during his tenure as manager, and the Gazzetta dello Sport suggests that the Inter boss could sign the French international should they lose Mateo Kovacic this summer.

Kovacic is being mooted as a possible target for Real Madrid, meaning that Nasri could be signed as a potential replacement for the young Croatian midfielder.

Nasri has made 116 appearances for City since joining from Arsenal in 2011, scoring 16 goals in the process.
