'It makes no sense!' - Nasri denies rumours he went AWOL during coronavirus lockdown

Anderlecht midfielder Samir Nasri has denied going AWOL during the coronavirus lockdown, after reports surfaced suggesting he was facing the sack due to his conduct.

At the start of the week, Belgian outlet Derniere Heure published a story claiming Nasri had failed to notify Anderlecht officials that he had flown to Dubai, and cut all contact with the club amid the Covid-19 crisis.

The Jupiler Pro League outfit requested to be kept in the loop regarding players' movements and schedules while in self-isolation, with Nasri the only member of the squad neglecting to check in regularly.
