Agent: Toure open to Gunners switch

(GSM) – Yaya Toure could move to Premier League side Arsenal , according to the player’s agent.

The Cote d’Ivoire midfielder could be a part of the deal which would see Cesc Fabregas head the other way.

Barcelona have been linked again with a swoop for their former youth player who left Nou Camp to join the Gunners as a teenager back in 2003.

The Primera Division giants, who were dumped out of the UEFA Champions League at the last four stage to Internazionale last month, see the 23-year-old playmaker as the missing piece of the puzzle and are ready to offer £25million plus Toure.

And the Ivory Coast ace’s agent Dimitri Seluk has not ruled out the possibility of his client heading to the Emirates Stadium, with Arsene Wenger a keen admirer of the combative midfielder’s talents.

“Yaya is happy at Barcelona and will only leave for a big project at a big club,” Seluk said in The People.

“But in England there are sides with great prestige and that could be decisive. Arsene Wenger knows Yaya, and I am convinced he could be a success with Arsenal.”
