Yaya Toure's agent has told Sky Sports News HQ he is 90% certain the midfielder will leave Manchester City this summer.

Dimitri Seluk confirmed three clubs are chasing Toure's signature but he has yet to decide where his future lies.

He's looking for a strong manager that will throw him a mean birthday party.

My guess is more like 50/50. I think City would love to move him, but want real money for him. Inter want him for free for the favor of now paying his wages.

If someone offers 20 million take it and run but if City overvalue his worth which they might bc they need to buy players. He might end up stuck there.

Wages wise no one wants to pay that, but like other players City has sold they can still pay a % of the wages

When he is right, he's one of the best midfielders in the world. I know he's a little old to demand a massive transfer fee, but 20 mil or something close to that sounds reasonable. Especially with the way big clubs are spending these days.

20 would be probably too much throwing in the age factor. No big spending clubs want his services. Inter wants him but can't splash 20 million on him.

Next Wed (May 13) is Yaya's birthday.
I would recommend you get on Amazon, 1800Flower, and get your cards in the mail today.

Amateur. I'd get two hot strippers with titty sandwich potential coming out of a gigantic birthday cake. That's how you do it.

Only 38, but the really surprising thing is that he's Kolo's son, not brother.

Since a lot of players in their late20s/early 30s suffer down seasons after WC summers (and add ACON for Yaya), it wouldn't surprise me to see him have a couple of seasons like 2013-14 again.

However, I agree that if he's not going to Real, Barca, PSG, ManU or Chelsea there's not many more clubs that are going to take on his massive wages and pay much for the transfer, especially coming off a down season.

Inter is also being hit by FFP (which is pretty absurd since they're one of the clubs doing the most to diversify revenue streams and not even spending enough in the market enough to compete for a CL spot as it is).


Also, not sure it affects his transfer fee, but Yaya's favorite musician is Kenny G.

He's coming for a shock LFC family reunion.

He doesn't want to play for City anymore and he had a bad year. This is a fairly common thing in todays game. He's only 31. Someone will pay.

Real, Barca, PSG, ManU or Chelsea


He's as good or better than any midfielder that plays for these clubs.

I wouldn't trade any of PSG's regular midfielders for 31 year old Yaya. Not even Motta.
