Hammers split over Samri Nasri signing

|

West Ham supporters are  split over the possible signing of 31-year-old French midfielder Samri Nasri.

Over one thousand one hundred readers took part in yesterday’s Claret and Hugh poll and nearly 59% are against his appointment with over 41% in favor of his addition to the squad.

Opinions against are divided and range from his proposed wages, his fitness, his attitude, his anti-doping suspension but also the message it sends out to younger players like Declan Rice and Grady Diangana.

Full Poll Results: 1,121 voted  Yes 41.21% (462)  No 58.79% (659)

Daily Mail Journalist Ian Ladyman who first broke the story over a week ago claims Nasri’s six months with a one-year option is worth £95,000-a-week and might stick around after the summer as he has received a big money offer from China for next summer.

As Claret and Hugh reported yesterday the medical has already uncovered serious doubts over Nasri’s fitness and club insider claims there is only a 505/50 chance of the transfer completing.

Under the terms of his anti-doping ban, the Frenchman is not eligible to play until 1st January next year.
