Pep Guardiola hints at Samir Nasri exit

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola hints that French midfielder Samir Nasri will leave the Etihad Stadium ahead of the new campaign.

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola has suggested that French midfielder Samir Nasri will leave the Etihad Stadium in this summer's transfer window.

The 29-year-old, whose deal at the Etihad will expire in the summer of 2019, spent last season on loan at Sevilla - scoring twice in 23 La Liga appearances as Jorge Sampaoli led the club to a fourth-place finish.

A number of clubs have been linked with a move for the former Arsenal attacker, but it has been claimed that City are struggling to shift Nasri due to his "high wage demands".

Nasri is currently with the City squad on their pre-season tour of North America, but Guardiola has hinted that the Frenchman is surplus to requirements ahead of the 2017-18 campaign.

"He knows the situation," Guardiola told reporters. "We have a lot of midfield players, so we're going to see."

Nasri was a part of the Citizens side that recorded a 3-0 win over Premier League rivals Tottenham Hotspur in the International Champions Cup on Saturday night.
