Manchester City stars want ‘arrogant’ outcast Samir Nasri out of the club as they question his US tour inclusion
MANCHESTER CITY stars are reportedly questioning the decision to bring Samir Nasri on the club’s tour of America with the Frenchman being a virtual outcast on the trip.
The Citizens are desperately looking for a buyer as Pep Guardiola made clear he no longer figures in his plans at the Etihad.

And the Daily Mail are claiming the 30-year-old’s mood in the camp has left his teammates bemused as to why he was not left to train in the North West, despite receiving praise from skipper Vincent Kompany last week.
A source told them: “The squad don’t understand why Nasri is even here.
“He is very unpopular due to his arrogant attitude. Some of the squad even want him to go back to Manchester.”
Nasri was a £24million signing from Arsenal back in 2011 and still has two years remaining on his City deal.
However, he was shipped out to Spanish side Sevilla on loan last season after being told he has no future with the Premier League giants.
But Guardiola’s attempts to find a buyer for him have been complicated by a Uefa probe investigating whether he has breached doping regulations.
