We started the season very well and our goal was the title. Obviously, it is difficult to defeat Juventus, yet they are a great team, although they started very poorly. At one time we had 15 points ahead of them, but we lost a lot of easy points.`
`Juve made a cool twist and amazing series, which returned to the top, while we were not so permanent, to stay on top. Each of us wanted more, but now I`m going to have to fight for second place, which would be something. Still gives the right to direct involvement in the Champions League.`, he added.

However, he will try to obtain a transfer, which has been reflected for several years now. His agent Dimitri Seluk confirmed that he has had several offers on his mind and who will discuss with Toure.
`We have waited too long. Manchester City promised us a deal, but nothing happened and Yahya go in June.`, said the Russian. `He, of course, is disappointed. Yaya is a professional who still have an active contract, so that will continue to deliver the best for the city.`
The younger of the brothers Toure arrived at the `Etihad` in the summer of 2010 by Barcelona. Last summer there was a lot of talking that his former mentor at City - Roberto Manchini wants him at Inter, but the Italians did not have the necessary finances to push the deal.
`Several different offers have arrived and we appreciate them. However, the final predicted by footballwintips.com decision will be taken after the end of the season. If the economic aspect will affect? Definitely not. Do not put money above all else, it`s the project that our clubs present. This convinced us the most.`, added Seluk.
