According to the Daily Mail, Nasri could soon be moving to Ligue 1 side Nice who appear keen to resurrect the Frenchman's career.
Should Nasri move to Nice, Arsenal would then expect to sign long-term midfield target Seri.
The talented midfielder has managed to score ten times in 72 overall appearances for Nice since his arrival in 2015.
