Samir Nasri training with West Ham in bid to earn move

French midfielder Samir Nasri is reportedly now training with West Ham, as he continues in his bid to earn a £80,000 a week move to the London Stadium.

The former Manchester City man will be free play again in January after serving an 18 month ban for breaking World Anti-Doping Agency rules in 2016.

However the Frenchman is able to train, and is now attempting to prove his fitness to West Ham in a bid to earn a move to the Premier League side according to the London Evening Standard.

Nasri played under West Ham boss Manuel Pellegrini at Manchester City, where the pair lifted the Premier League trophy back in 2014.

Whilst on loan to Sevilla in 2016, Nasri was given 500 millimetres of hydration whilst on holiday to Los Angeles. The hydration contained micronutrients and exceeded the limits set by WADA.

Pellegrini remains an admirer of Nasri, but his fitness is still a big question. After not playing for two years, West Ham will be hoping that the former Arsenal and Man City man has still got the legs to be a Premier League standard player.
