PARIS, May 17 (Reuters) - Olympique Marseille playmaker Samir Nasri fuelled media speculation linking him with a move to Arsenal next season by saying on Saturday he might have played his last game for his Ligue 1 club.

Asked to comment on a goal he scored against Racing Strasbourg in Saturday's final round of fixtures, Nasri told French television: "It is very important because it is perhaps my last match at the Stade Velodrome."

French sports daily L'Equipe reported on Friday that the 20-year-old, who has been compared with former France great Zinedine Zidane, was a target for Arsenal's French manager Arsene Wenger.

The versatile midfielder extended his Marseille contract to 2012 earlier this month.
