Samir Nasri, who was excluded from the France national team after Euro 2012, expresses his desire to make a return. The Manchester City midfielder hopes to be included in Didier Deschamps’ squad for the June tour of South America. Nasri emphasizes the importance of the French national team to him and states that anyone who has tasted playing for France and claims not to want to play again is a liar. Nasri has not had direct or indirect contact with Deschamps but hopes to work hard next season to earn a place in the national team. The midfielder awaits the official announcement of the squad at 12 p.m. UT.
