Inter Milan manager Roberto Mancini has once again spoken about the possibility of signing midfielder Yaya Touré from Manchester City.

Touré was at his imperious best when he played under Mancini. He has never been the same under Manuel Pellegrini. Several conflicting actions between the club and the player seemed to have deteriorated their relationship to a point of no return. Mancini’s relationship with Inter though could have a defining moment in the potential move of the player. This is after the club failed to qualify for the Champions League once again despite spending a lot of money.

Manchester City recently played a Premier League match against Chelsea and the team of Manuel Pellegrini claimed a convincing 3-0 triumph. Yaya Toure had a few things to say in relation to this game.

The Ivorian midfielder considers the performance from his teammates in this match to be one of the best that they have displayed from the entire season. 3 goals from Sergio Aguero was more than enough for Manchester City to seal the victory against Chelsea and seal all 3 points from this game.

Yaya Toure revealed information about his team planned for this match and how they performed which helped in snatching the victory as the veteran midfielder said: “We played very well and started by trying to control the game and I thought the whole team played really well,”

There is news coming that Yaya Toure might be leaving Manchester City in the summer with his agents saying that there are big European clubs interested in signing the Ivorian defender. Toure, who has still one year left on his contract, has yet to receive another deal with City.

With Pep Guardiola coming to Manchester City, Yaya Toure will be keen to find another club that will ensure that he gets enough playing time next season. Indeed, it is Guardiola who sold Toure when he was at Barcelona, and the Ivorian might want to avoid any clash with the new manager.

According to his agent, DimitrySelu, Yaya Toure should have been treated differently. He gave everything for the club and would have expected a new deal from the Sky Blues ahead of the new season.

Instead, there has been nothing concrete offered by Manchester City. As a result, Toure will be on the look for another club that will provide him a better deal.

Neymar is currently going through a difficult point in time in relation to his national football team and his club Barcelona - the 24 year old player has to decide on which competition to perform in, either the 2016 Copa America or the Olympic Games.

The Copa America will kick off on June 3 and finish on June 26 meanwhile the Olympic Games initiates on August 5 and terminates on August 21.

Yaya Toure's agent Dimitri Seluk says that his client will start talking with other clubs if he does not receive an offer from Manchester City within one week.

Touré has given this timeframe to receive a new contract. The 32-year-old Ivorian is thought to be concerned about his future prospects at the Etihad stadium. He has only one year left on his contract, but City have not shown any urgency to sign him on for further time. This may be partly down to the managerial change that is going to happen at the club in the summer.
