Marco Verratti, also 23, would be another neat replacement for Toure at City. Over the last few seasons, his impressive performances, most notably in the UEFA Champions League, have seen his value skyrocket.

The Italian is sure to draw lots of attention in the summer, and Paris Saint-Germain may have a hard time holding on to him.

Verratti is as industrious as he is skillful on the ball, and would certainly be a refreshing addition to the City midfield. He can take the ball off the defence to initiate attacks, and can do the dirty work at the back as well, breaking up opposition play and mopping up in the defensive half.

Unfortunately for City, the cash-strapped PSG do not need to sell any of their players and will try their best to keep him.
