Arsenal and Manchester United in Toure tussle

Arsenal and Manchester United are both interested in securing the services of Manchester City midfielder Yaya Toure, according to Sky Sports.

The Ivory Coast international has only played once this season, playing in the 1-0 Champions League qualification victory over Steaua Bucharest, and hasn’t even been named in any of the match-day squads for their three Premier League fixtures.

City manager Pep Guardiola was the man who sold him from Barcelona back in 2010 and he could be set to cash in again when the transfer window reopens in January after omitting him from his 21 man Champions League squad.

In total, Toure has played two hundred and sixty-six times for City in all competitions, scoring seventy-five goals while he has helped them to two Premier League titles and victory in both domestic cups.

City face rivals United at Old Trafford on Saturday afternoon with the away win priced at 23/10.
