West Ham United are thought to be interested in adding a couple of new faces to their side in the January transfer window.
Manuel Pellegrini has been dealt a number of blows already this season as he has seen a lot of his squad having to hit the treatment table.
Samir Nasri has been touted as a surprise possibility, with the manager having worked extremely successfully with the former France international at Manchester City.
And, it appears as though he could have the chance to impress at the Hammers, as he has been pictured in training with the squad.
West Ham Social posted on their Twitter account a photo of Nasri in a training top as the free agent looks to earn himself a contract with the Premier League side.

He would not be able to play until January, following his drugs ban, but is looking to use the next six weeks or so to improve his fitness and prove himself to the club.
The Verdict:
When Nasri’s name came up as a possible target, there were always going to be concerns from those at West Ham about what he could bring.
However, it appears as though the 31-year-old is determined and willing to try and earn himself a contract at the London Stadium.
Six weeks is a long time in football, but if he works hard and impresses, he could be spotted in a West Ham strip once January arrives.
West Ham fans – thoughts?
