Anderlecht chief Verschueren concedes big regrets signing Nasri

Former Manchester City and Arsenal midfielder Samir Nasri has been told he's not wanted at Anderlecht.

Nasri joined Anderlecht as a free agent on a mooted €6m salary, but injuries have restricted him to just seven appearances so far this season.

The situation has left management frustrated, particularly given the team's on-field struggles this season.

“Again, would we have signed Samir Nasri? With what we know now, no...," he stated.
