team newspaper reported that former French international Nasri renewed his contract with Canal+ until 2029 and refused Ligue 1+'s invitation.
Nasri decided to stay at Canal+ as a commentator until 2029. The 38-year-old former French national midfielder has proven himself worthwhile in Canal+ for the past four seasons and has recently signed a new four-year contract with the channel. Nasri will report that he will continue his role in Canal Champions Club and continue to participate in the coverage of the Champions League.
He expressed his loyalty and gratitude to Canal+ in an interview with The Team: "I am very happy to be able to stay at Canal+. It is a top TV station with the right to broadcast the Champions League. I have had a great time with the entire team over the past four years and I hope to continue this partnership. In addition, Canal+ has helped me improve my image. Therefore, signing a long-term contract is a natural choice for me. In the coming months, I will also be involved in some new projects, which is a place where talent can be displayed."
Previously, Ligue 1+ tried to attract Nasri to its newly established Ligue 1 professional channel, but failed. With Nasri's decision to stay, Ligue 1+ now needs to find other influential celebrity commentators to fill the gap. The only one who is sure to join is Benoît Cheyrou.
