Agent insists there is no truth in reports of Italian interest

Samir Nasri's agent has dismissed speculation linking the midfielder with a move to Italy and confirmed that talks are ongoing over an extension to his current Arsenal deal. Although his form has tailed off over the past couple of months, Nasri has been a star performer for the Gunners this season and was in the running for the PFA Player of the Year award. He has established himself as a key member of Arsene Wenger's squad since moving to the Emirates Stadium from Marseille in the summer of 2008. However, he is under contract for just one more year and speculation has surfaced suggesting Juventus and Inter Milan would like to take him to Serie A. Wenger revealed last month that discussions had begun regarding a new deal and that he was optimistic Nasri would commit his long-term future to the North London club. The 23-year-old's representative, Alain Migliaccio, has now insisted there is nothing for Arsenal fans to be worried about. He told calciomercato.it: "The interest from Juventus and Inter Milan? There is nothing with them. "There is no break with Arsenal, in fact, we start over negotiations for the extension of the contract which currently expires in 2012."
