Manchester United set to lodge a £20m bid to sign Samir Nasri from their league rival Arsenal
The Red Devils are reportedly going to table a£20 (€22.5) million bid this week to acquire the services of Arsenal midfielder that will test the Gunners' resolve, with the Frenchman currently having only one year left on his contract at the Emirates
The 23-year-old is thought to have been offered a five-year contract by the Gunners after his top quality showings last season. But he is yet to put pen to paper and confirm his stay at Ashburton Grove, with speculation abounding that his reluctance to commit reflects Arsenal's trophy drought and uncertainty about manager Arsene Wenger's transfer activity.
In the meantime, the midfielder has been linked with a controversial move to the Red Devils, who are fresh from becoming the most successful club in English football after surpassing Liverpool when they won their 19th league title last season.
Arsenal is believed to be anxious not to repeat the mistake they made with Mathieu Flamini - who left on a Bosman free transfer to join AC Milan in 2008 - with Nasri currently having only one year left on his contract with the club.
