Manchester City midfielder Samir Nasri has no intention of making himself available again for selection for the France national team.
The 27-year-old decided to retire from international duty after Didier Deschamps left him out of the squad for the World Cup last summer and he is adamant that not even a new coach would tempt him to make a comeback.
"My France career is finished, even if there is a change of coach at some point," Nasri told beIN Sports.
"My dream has always been to play at a World Cup but I have missed two for different reasons.
"I tried to talk to Deschamps but he didn't want to speak. We have the same agent, which could have made things easier, but it's his decision in the end and I have to respect it.
"I was told that there was a behavioural problem. I proposed a meeting to solve the matter. I accept it if there are players who are better than me. It's a World Cup, after all. You have to make efforts and sacrifices."
Nasri represented France at Euro 2008 and Euro 2012, making 41 international appearances for Les Bleus in total, in which he scored five goals.
