Manchester City believe they have captured Arsenal playmaker Samir Nasri for £19million.
The deal is close to completion and will represent a significant victory for City with both Manchester United and Chelsea also keen on landing the Frenchman.The fact that City are grabbing Nasri just 24 hours after Carlos Tevez told of his wish to leave the club is also seen as an important moment for a club who will play in the Champions League for the first time this season.City boss Roberto Mancini has told the club owners he needs five new faces before the start of the season.After the signing of Gael Clichy for £7m earlier this week, the Nasri move represents another serious loss for Arsenal to one of their Barclays Premier League rivals.
