Manchester City transfer news: Out-of-favour Samir Nasri is set to join Besiktas as Turkish club enter negotiations
Nasri knows he is not included in Pep Guardiola's plans and looks for options with Turkey likely to be his exit door
SAMIR NASRI has entered negotiations with Turkish club Besiktas, according to SunSport sources.
Besiktas are discussing terms with the midfielder's agent for a loan deal with an option to buy, for a few hours now.
Nasri, 29, knows his position under new boss Manchester City Pep Guardiola is done and dusted: not in his plan.
For that, the French midfielder was not included in Guardiola's Champions League squad.
Italian clubs, including Roberto Mancini before he was sacked by Inter Milan, enquired for the transfer of Nasri this summer.
However, no one was able to seal a deal.
Nasri could quickly leave Manchester for Turkey with the transfer closing on August 31, at 11pm.
