Samir Nasri will be fitted with a
protective cast in an effort to ensure he can make his home debut for
Manchester City this weekend after breaking a bone in his left hand while on
international duty for France.

Nasri suffered the injury during a
15-minute substitute's appearance in France's goalless draw with Romania on
Tuesday. He was able to finish the match after receiving a pain-killing spray
but he left the stadium with a cast on his left hand and, on his return to
Manchester, was taken to a private hospital for an x-ray.
The results will determine whether the
£24m signing, who made his City debut in the 5-1 defeat of Tottenham Hotspur at
White Hart Lane two weekends ago, can play in the Premier League home game
against Wigan Athletic on Saturday. The immediate sense at City is that the
former Arsenal player will be cleared to play.
