and we are getting Barton back on a free!
Samir Nasri, opening up the possibility of a return to Arsenal.
The France international left the Gunners in a £25million transfer last August and went on to help City win the Premier League title.
Samir Nasri may find he is on his way out of Manchester City (PA)
However, Mancini was not happy with Nasri's performances and has doubts about his role in the team, reports L'Equipe.
The French newspaper claimed that while the 24-year-old is not on the transfer list, City are prepared to consider bids for him.
That news may interest Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger, who remains one of Nasri's biggest fans, but a section of the Gunners support would not be keen to see the midfielder return after he made a series of unflattering comments about the club.
It is by no means certain Wenger will try to take advantage of the situation and, even if he does, there is no guarantee City would be willing to do business.
The Etihad Stadium board are reluctant to help strengthen their rivals by selling players to top English clubs, so would prefer Nasri to move overseas.
Inter Milan were keen on the midfielder last summer and may renew their interest if they cash-in on Wesley Sneijder.
