Samir Nasri Set to Complete Manchester City Medical Within a Day

With Cesc Fabregas gone, Arsenal would have hoped that they could turn to Frenchmen Samir Nasri to lead Arsenal's attack going forward.

However, it would seem that the attacking midfielder may just also be on his way out.

In turn, he would be the third major loss at the Emirates this transfer window (Fabregas and Clichy being the other two).

According to Goal.com, Samir Nasri is expected to head over to Etihad to complete a medical and surely sign off on a contract. He would link up with former Arsenal teammate Gael Clichy who also made the move to Manchester.

The rumours have surfaced after Cesc Fabregas was allowed to leave Arsenal to Barcelona just days ago. Nasri went on to fuel a possible move by not re-signing his contract with Arsenal. The actions have prompted much reaction from the fans, upset at the loyalty being shown towards the club.

After being on the end of an offensive chant from the Arsenal fans in the Newcastle game, perhaps Nasri does not feel as though he is wanted at Arsenal anymore—although one would question where would Nasri fit in at Manchester City. With Aguero making his apparent mark on the English Premier League, David Silva playing extremely well and Dzeko coming into form, there is really no room for Samir Nasri.

Nasri was nominated for the PFA Player of the Year last year, and his loss would leave Arsene Wenger with a great deal of money to be spent before the conclusion of the transfer window.

That is, if Arsenal want to realistically challenge for the English Premier League title.
