Nasri only appeared six times for West Ham United last season.

Le Havre dream of signing Samir Nasri after the Frenchman’s release by West Ham United, according to L’Equipe.

Nasri only played six times for West Ham after his January move to the London Stadium, which saw him reunited with his former Manchester City manager, Manuel Pellegrini, after a year-long doping ban.

The attacking midfielder recorded two assists in that time, but was still let go at the end of last season.

Reports suggest Nasri has not been short of interest, and Le Havre are the latest club to be credited with an interest.

The 32-year-old is said to have been approached by the French Ligue 2 side’s manager, Paul Le Guen.

Paul Le Guen attends the French Ligue 1 match Olympique de Marseille and Paris Saint Germain at Orange Stade Velodrome on February 26, 2017 in Marseille, France.

But it is claimed their plans could be scuppered by Nasri’s salary demands, with the Sun having reported the player’s West Ham weekly wage to be £80,000.

Nasri also has offers from Dubai and Australia, according to L’Equipe, which could be more financially rewarding.

West Ham have already replaced the two-time Premier League winner with the Spain international, Pablo Fornals, from Villarreal.
