CHAMPIONS LEAGUE-NASRI: “I THINK WE CAN ELIMINATE BARÇA”

On February 18, football enthusiasts eagerly anticipate the resumption of the Champions League with the round of 16 first leg. Among the highly anticipated clashes is FC Barcelona against Manchester City.

Despite being currently sidelined due to injury, Samir Nasri could potentially make a comeback for this titan clash. The French international has been grappling with a partial ligament rupture since January 12.

In an appearance on RMC, the midfielder, of Algerian origin, expressed his anticipation for the encounter against Barcelona. Nasri believes that Manchester City has the capability to overcome the Catalan giants. He stated, “With City, we are competing in four competitions with the aim of winning them all. In the Champions League, we are set for an exciting match against Barça. In my opinion, they are more vulnerable than in the past. Personally, I believe we have what it takes to eliminate them. If our injured players return and we have a full squad, I am confident we can defeat them!”
