Yaya Toure has travelled with the Manchester City squad for their Champions League semi-final second leg with Real Madrid.

City had initially tweeted that Toure and David Silva had been left behind and would miss Wednesday night's showdown.

But then the club confirmed that Toure was indeed on the plane to Spain - though there is no news yet on whether Silva travelled too.

Toure has not featured since the 4-0 Premier League win at Stoke on April 23 due to a muscle injury but he did train with the squad on Tuesday. 

Silva limped off in the first half of last week's 0-0 first leg draw with Real at the Etihad.
