#8 Yaya Toure – Manchester City
Formerly a defender, Yaya Toure plays primarily as a box-to-box midfielder, often switching between offensive and defensive stances throughout matches. Touré is a complete and versatile midfielder, who can play in several midfield positions and he is regarded as one of the best midfielders of this generation.
When Pep Guardiola was announced as the Manchester City manager, Toure’s agent Dimitri Seluk was not a happy man.
Speaking to the Sun, Dimitri Seluk revealed he expected his client to leave City in the next transfer window. "I think Yaya will leave the club. But before leaving, I hope he will again win the league and all the cups," he said.
"It's not a question of whether Pep likes him or not. It's life, you know."
. After leaving Barcelona, Toure in an interview to Ona FM in February 2014 was quoted as saying
“'Whenever I asked him (Guardiola) something, he always gave strange answers. He pretty much ignored me until City's offer came in. “
Yaya Toure who is just 32 still will be coveted by plenty of teams with Chinese super league club Shanghai SIPG and Italian giants Inter Milan being touted as possible destinations.
