Former Arsenal and Manchester City midfielder Samir Nasri looks set for a return to the Premier League – if he can convince West Ham of his fitness following his doping ban.

The Frenchman was given a 6-month ban in February after receiving an intravenous treatment at a Los Angeles clinic in breach of the World Anti-Doping Agency’s rules. The former France international received the treatment in December 2016 while on holiday. At the time he was playing for Sevilla, on loan from City.

talkSPORT claim Nasri is due for a medical in the capital ahead of sealing an £80,000-a-week deal back to the Premier League.

The 31-year-old would not be eligible to play until 1 January, but is permitted to train with any club from this month.

Nasri left Arsenal in 2011 to join Manchester City. The playmaker helped win the Premier League twice for the Citizens.
