But City are hoping they may hold the trump card in the form of Nasri, according to the Mirror.

It is claimed that Nasri has had a furious bust-up with Manuel Pellegrini after being dropped for the game against Leicester on 4 March.

And City now hope to solve two problems in one fell swoop by shipping the troublesome 27-year-old to Turin in part-exchange for Pogba.

However, the volatile former Arsenal man has previously said his preference would be to play in America were he to leave City.

Last month he said: "Marseille would be the only place that I'd like to play in France, but I think it's not realistic.

"My dream is to play in the MLS maybe, because I love the lifestyle in America."
