Agent suggests Toure would move to Arsenal

Yaya Toure, the Barcelona midfielder, would be open to the prospect of a move to Arsenal, claims the player's agent. Barca have been linked again with a swoop for Cesc Fabregas in the summer and it is thought the Primera Division giants see the Spain international 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."
