Arsenal have made significant progress with Samir Nasri's representatives over the last 24 hours, according to a source close to the player. Nasri's current deal expires in 2012, and the player had been linked with a summer switch to rivals Man Utd.
However, eyefootball.com understands that Nasri has been offered a package that is nearly double his current deal to keep him at the Emirates beyond 2012.
The news will be a relief for many Arsenal fans, who were concerned they may lose one of their star men in the summer.
Nasri had been holding out for a better package at the Emirates, and it seems that Stan Kroenke will bankroll a new package for the player.
It is believed that the club's new majority shareholder has discussed adjusting the strict wage policy of Arsene Wenger to accommodate new signings and ensure that the club keep hold of their best players.
