Samir Nasri undergoing West Ham medical | OneFootball

West Ham United are close to completing a deal to sign former Arsenal and Manchester City midfielder Samir Nasri.

The Frenchman is currently serving an 18-month ban for doping but will be eligible to play again at the end of December.

According to the Evening Standard, Nasri is undergoing a medical with the Hammers on Monday.

The 31-year-old has been linked with the likes of Everton and a move to MLS but it seems he will be returning to London.

Nasri previously worked with Manuel Pellegrini at Manchester City, scoring 11 goals in 46 appearances in the 2013/14 season, when City were crowned champions.

However, he fell out of favour under the Argentine and eventually left the club when Pep Guardiola arrived two years ago.

Nasri spent time on loan with Sevilla before moving to Turkey, where he played eight times for Antalyaspor before his doping ban began.
