West Ham remain undecided about whether to offer the former Manchester City midfielder a six-month deal worth £80,000 a week with the option of a one-year extension, and are assessing the 31-year-old’s fitness in training as he nears the end of his 18-month doping ban. However Pellegrini is in favour of signing Nasri, who is not eligible to play until 1 January, and does not think the France international is past his best. How Samir Nasri went from being the ‘new Zidane’ to an outcast | Nick Ames Read more “Samir Nasri is a very technical player who always made the difference playing as a midfielder when he is fit,” Pellegrini said. “We are going to give him a hand to try to return. You have seen over the years what he can do. He was an important player not only for me and City but also for Arsenal. What we need is to recover the real Samir Nasri.” Pellegrini knows Nasri from his time at City and is confident it will not take the former France international long to regain sharpness. “If he has no injuries from now until 1 January, when he can play, I think he can be fit without any problems,” the manager said. “The most important thing is not to do it too fast. When you have gone so long without playing, you can have an injury that will delay your return.” Pellegrini dismissed concerns over Marko Arnautovic’s future after the Austrian forward hinted he could be ready to leave West Ham in order to play in the Champions League. Arnautovic is represented by his brother Danijel, who said that the 29-year-old needed to be playing at the highest level during an interview with the Austrian newspaper Kurier last week. Manuel Pellegrini stands tall despite looming shadow of Pep Guardiola Read more “I cannot tell everyone what they must say or what they must not say,” Pellegrini said. “Everyone is the owner of their own words. With Marko, he didn’t say those words to me. He can say what he wants. “I don’t want to continue talking about the words of the brother of the player. I know Marko. I know the way he thinks. I think that every player in every team must have an ambitious mind. But I am sure he is happy here and the best way to do it is to continue having good performances.” West Ham United Samir Nasri Manuel Pellegrini news Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Share via Email Share on LinkedIn Share on Pinterest Share on Google+ Share on WhatsApp Share on Messenger Reuse this content
