Man City close in on Nasri: report
Nasri is set to join Roberto Mancini's side for a fee of 25 million euros.

Manchester: Manchester City have moved a step closer in their attempts to sign Samir Nasri after agreeing terms with Arsenal for the French midfielder, according to reports.

Sky Sport Italia claims Nasri is set to join Roberto Mancini's side for a fee of 25 million euros, with the player believed to have been offered a contract worth 6 million euros a year - over 100,000 pounds a week.

The 2010-11 season was Nasri's most impressive since arriving in England in 2008 and he has been a wanted man ever since, with Manchester United and Chelsea also credited with an interest in the player.

The Frenchman has made 124 appearances in three seasons for Arsenal, scoring 27 times but it appears his stay at the Emirates Stadium is coming to an end.

City have identified Nasri as a summer target to add creativity to their midfield as they prepare for their debut season in the Champions League.

The Eastlands club have already secured the signing of defender Gael Clichy from the Gunners, while they added to that purchase with the acquisition of talented Montenegro international Stefan Savic this week.

City are yet to confirm or deny that a deal is in place to sign Nasri as the summer's biggest transfer saga takes a fresh turn.
