Sevilla director of football Monchi said today: “We are finalising the transfer of Nasri.
“We are negotiating with the player and City and trying to close the deal. If we get Nasri, we will have got the player we have been looking for from the start”.
Spanish football expert Guillem Balague does not believe there is an option to buy him outright in a year’s time even though City were prepared to sell him this summer.
