But speaking after the match, Nasri told : “There could still be movement. It depends on a lot of things, in fact.

“There’s been a lot of speculation. Things that are true. Things that are false too because they’ve never shown me the door.

“But I said ‘everything depends on what’s up there [in your head] and your desire’. So we’ll see. We’re going to sit down, discuss it and see what’s to be done.”

Nasri was embarrassingly thrown into Guardiola’s ‘fat camp’ during pre-season.

The City boss said at the time: “He arrived a little bit overweight. He’s much better now but he is still a little bit overweight.

“Last season he was overweight and he was injured all season, so we want to avoid that.”

Nasri, who played 15 minutes against the Hammers, said: “I was a little out of shape and then I worked a lot.

“I let people talk. I simply concentrated on what I know what to do best and that’s on the pitch.

“For a few weeks now, things have been going really well with the coach. He decided to call on me today and I tried to show him on the pitch.”

Meanwhile, Joe Hart could be off to Serie A with both AC Milan and Torino interested in the out-of-favour keeper.
