Manchester City are so desperate to move on star midfielder Yaya Toure in January that they won't mind selling him to a Premier League rival according to the Dailymail. Toure who earns an excess of £220,000 per week has been deemed surplus to requirements by manager Pep Guardiola unless he apologises to the Club, fellow players and the manager after Toure's agent Dimitri Seluk attacked the
former Barcelona manager for having not played the Ivorian in his first four league games.
This is not the first time Toure and Pep are falling out after they pair fell out in Barcelona, which led to the sale of Toure to Manchester City for £24 million in 2010 with Sergio Busquets promoted from Le Masia as his replacement.
The Ivorian had earlier rejected a lucrative offer from China and Inter Milan in the summer. The reason for Toure's refusal to quit Manchester City may not be far fetched from the fact that his family is settled in Manchester (Cheshire ), hence his insistence to continue playing in England. Toure returned to training this week, although he didn't travel to South Wales with the rest of the Manchester City squad who travelled to Swansea to play them in the League Cup and League game this weekend.
Toure is revered in Manchester City having won the Premier League and League Cup twice and the FA Cup during his time at the club.
