Samir Nasri has made five Premier League appearances since reuniting with Manuel Pellegrini at West Ham United.
Samir Nasri wants £70,000 a week if he is to extend his stay at West Ham United, according to Football London.
The former France international made a shock return to the Premier League in December, joining the Hammers for free after an 18-month ban for breaching doping regulations brought an end to his spell at Turkish outfit Antalyaspor.
Nasri has made just six appearances for West Ham since then but he has caught the eye on occasions; a terrific performance in a 1-0 win against former club Arsenal in January showing that his ability to carve open a defence remains as sharp as ever.
But it remains to be seen whether the 31-year-old will be kept on beyond this season. Manager Manuel Pellegrini, who won the Premier League title alongside Nasri at Manchester City in 2014, has been rather coy on the play-maker’s future so far.
Yet Football London have now shed light on the situation.
They claim that the former Sevilla and Marseille star wants £70,000 a week and a sizeable appearance fee. Although the report adds that Nasri’s ongoing struggles with a calf injury could force Pellegrini into releasing a player he obviously rates very highly.
With just two games remaining before 2019/20 comes to a close, he is running out of time.
