PSG appeals to Toure

Manchester City star Yaya Toure has told France Football that he could not rule out a possible move to Paris Saint-Germain. Toure's future has become subject to heated speculation after his agent suggested the Ivory Coast midfielder was underappreciated and disrespected at City. Toure backed his agent's comments and he himself admitted he would like the chance to return to former club Barcelona at some point in the future. Now Toure, who is currently with the Ivorian squad ahead of the World Cup finals which begin next month, has refused to rule out a possible future switch to PSG - who have been linked in recent days. Talking to France Football and asked about the possibility of moving to the Parc des Princes, he is quoted as saying: "Considering the objectives in Paris, how could you not be attracted by such a club?

It would be an honour to be part of such a club one day. If I could help..." Reports in France claim that PSG will turn to Toure if they lose Italian midfielder Marco Verratti - who has been linked to Real Madrid. Open In the interview, the midfielder also played down suggestions a summer move could be on the cards. "Given the magnificent season Manchester City have had, everyone talks about me and everything is open," Toure added.
