Toure keen on PSG switch

Manchester City midfielder Yaya Toure has cast more doubt on his future at the club by admitting it would be an honour to play for Paris St Germain.

Toure keen on PSG switch

Over the last week it has emerged all is not well with the Ivory Coast midfielder after his agent complained the player was not respected enough by the club’s hierarchy, even suggesting the 31-year-old was unhappy his recent birthday was not marked properly.

Dimitry Seluk said last week he rated Toure staying at City as “50-50” and the player’s comments about PSG will only increase speculation he is looking to move on.

“Given the goals of Paris, how could you not be interested in a club like that?” Toure said.

“PSG have become one of the strongest teams in Europe. It would be a honour to one day play for a club like that. If I can be of service...”

In the interview, the midfielder did little to play down suggestions a summer move could be on the cards.

“Given the magnificent season Manchester City have had, everyone talks about me and everything is open,” he added.
