Samir Nasri's agent insists the Marseille midfielder has not signed a contract with Arsenal but admits a deal could be done soon.

Nasri posted a message on his own website claiming he had agreed a four-year contract with Arsenal, but the Premier League have not confirmed the deal.

"Discussions are continuing between the two clubs and the player" - Jean-Pierre Bernes

Nasri's agent Jean-Pierre Bernes said: "Nothing has been finalised. It is premature to announce this. Discussions are continuing between the two clubs and the player."

The midfielder was part of the France squad at Euro 2008, but he only made two brief substitute appearances before they were knocked out in the group stage.

He came on during the draw with Romania and he replaced the injured Franck Ribery against Italy, but he was taken off 16 minutes later when France reorganised after Eric Abidal was sent off.

Nasri also played for Marseille in the Champions League and Uefa Cup last season.
