Midfielder could be lured away from the Etihad this summer

The agent of Manchester City midfielder Yaya Toure claims his client would be willing to listen to offers this summer and has called on Barcelona to make a move. The Ivory Coast international spent three years at Camp Nou between 2007 and 2010, prior to agreeing a big-money switch to City. He has enjoyed two successful seasons in England, picking up FA Cup and Premier League winners' medals. Toure's representative claims the 29-year-old is now in need of 'new motivations' and could be lured away from the Etihad Stadium. Dimitri Seluk has hinted that a return to Barcelona could be a possibility, while he has suggested that approaches from Chelsea, Bayern Munich and Real Madrid would be considered.

Situation

"He has done all he can do at City and he needs new motivations," Seluk said in The Sun. "Toure could sign for many big clubs like Chelsea and Bayern Munich. Also, we would like to see Barca join the race." He added: "I have not spoken to Barca but they know the situation. "I do not know if Madrid are interested but Jose Mourinho has liked him since he was at Chelsea."
