West Ham United playmaker Samir Nasri wants to stay.
West Ham United turned things around against Huddersfield Town on Saturday afternoon, coming from 3-1 down to win 4-3.
The Hammers had taken a 1-0 lead through a Mark Noble penalty, before Juninho Bacuna and a Karlan Grant brace had Huddersfield into a shock 3-1 lead.
Angelo Ogbonna brought West Ham back into the game, before Javier Hernandez bagged a brace to give Manuel Pellegrini’s side the win.
The real turning point was bringing on Samir Nasri, as the playmaker got West Ham playing for the final half an hour, having been introduced for Mark Noble.
The Frenchman picked up an assist in the win, leaving West Ham fans hoping to see more of him before the end of the season.
Nasri’s contract comes to an end this summer, and it remains to be seen whether Pellegrini offers him a new deal to stay at the London Stadium.
Their relationship from Manchester City should help Nasri’s cause, and he has admitted to the London Evening Standard that he is looking to impress Pellegrini in order to earn an extended stay having signed short-term deal in January.
West Ham fans have taken to Twitter to react to those comments, with many urging West Ham to sign him up for another year having shown that he still has real quality, though one fan is concerned that Nasri is using West Ham to get fit and earn himself a bigger move elsewhere…
