PHOTO: Nasri shows off new blue 'do on return to Manchester City training
Samir Nasri returned to the Etihad Campus training pitches in a celebratory mood on Friday, sporting dyed-blue hair as a homage to his employer, Manchester City.
The Frenchman has been struggling with a hamstring injury for much of the campaign, restricting him to just two competitive starts, but now looks to be on the mend to lend weight to City's push for domestic and continental honours.

Nasri's last outing was a 28-minute cameo in City's 5-1 topping of Bournemouth in October, and the 28-year-old is keen to get some more minutes in before the season's done.
"I've got an injury but these things happen so I'm going to work as hard as possible and come back as soon as I can and be there for my teammates. That's how I approached this," he told the club website.
There is no current prediction for when Nasri will return to action.
