Confusion surrounds ace Toure

A DAY of confusion and farce surrounding Yaya Toure seemingly ended with the player expressing his unhappiness at Manchester City last night.

The City midfielder initially appeared to contradict claims from his outspoken agent that he could quit the club this summer because he felt under–appreciated and disrepected.

But he quickly backtracked and supported his agent Dimitry Seluk’s’s views.

Adding to the absurdity was Seluk’s suggestion that one of Toure’s main gripes was the club’s failure to mark his 31st birthday last week - though in fact it did.

City did not comment on any of the developments, but with Toure having only signed a four–year contract in 2013, their position is one of strength.
