Yaya Toure is Still Committed to City

Ivory Coast international Yaya Toure has played down speculation of him leaving Man City after supposedly being upset by his owners’ disregard of his birthday last week. Toure’s agent Dimitri Seluk criticised City’s owners for their lack of acknowledgement towards their star midfielder, by saying:

“None of them shook his hand on his birthday. It’s really sick.

“He got a cake but when it was Roberto Carlos’s birthday, the president of Anzhi gave him a Bugatti,” Seluk told BBC Sport.

“I don’t expect City to present Yaya with a Bugatti, we only asked that they shook his hand and said ‘we congratulate you’. It is the minimum they must do when it is his birthday and the squad is all together.

“The most important thing is a human relationship and maybe this is his opportunity for Yaya to find that. If City don’t respect him, then, easy, Yaya will leave. No problem.

“I have spoken to him about leaving and we will see what happens, but, at the moment, Yaya is really upset.”

Seluk also claimed that Toure was unhappy last summer before penning a new four year deal. Toure is one of the highest earning footballers in the Premier League and was voted into the PFA Team of the Season.

This will be worrying news for City fans, and this may be the beginning of a Summer transfer saga.
