This season Yaya Toure started only handful of games after becoming an integral part of Barcelona. He was told to be unsettled due to his lack of pitch-time.

Yaya Toure after getting linked with the club Manchester City, his agent complained that Toure had been left out of the sqad. The agent also had questioned the decision of the club to give Toure a new contract.

Even though all these are happening, Yaya Toure has been seen of late of calming these speculations by saying that he is not unhappy at the Camp Nou and he is not in hurry to Barcelona.

According to Sky Sports, Toure is quoted, “My future in Barcelona is bright.”

He also added while giving such statement, “It is good to be linked with prestigious clubs but I am fine here in Barcelona for the moment. I am not moving unless Barcelona accept an offer, and I know I will not play week in week out.”

Yaya Toure had signed a contract extension this summer with the Catalan club. At the time when Ivory Coast secured the qualification for South Africa World Cup in 2010, he was part of the team and then he also expressed his delight for the huge fans there.

Touré earns at this moment around 2 million euro a year, the same as he did when playing at Monaco. When he signed a four-year contract in 2007, Barcelona promised that the salary would be raised after one year.

But this still didn’t happen and the Ivorian midfielder, who also doesn’t like the rotation system used by Barcelona manager Josep Guardiola, has asked his agent Dimitri Seluk to look for another club if his contract isn’t renewed soon. Touré would be one of the Barcelona players with the most offers on the table, with English Premier League club Arsenal preparing a 14 million euro° for June.

Touré is meanwhile quoted as unconfirmedly saying in an interview with French newspaper Le Parisien that he waits for a contract renewal: “I’m a professional player. If the club wants me to stay here, they are obliged to do something. I only hope that when the moment is there, everything goes well and a deal will be found quickly. Whatever happens, I would like to end my career at Monaco.”

It stayed like that until the end. This is the first loss of FC Barcelona after 21 rounds.

English press claims that Yaya would like to move to England, and team up with his brother in Arsenal. However, on several occasions, Toure has declared his desire to remain in Barcelona and end his career at the Blaugrana side.

We just have to wait and see what will happen.

He said that the team is doing well at the moment, and that he will work hard to help the team to win as many trophies as possible. “I would be honoured to finish my career in FC Barcelona.” said Yaya Toure.

“I am very happy in Barcelona. Things are going well, and I want to be a part of this team. As far as I’m concerned, I want to stay here for as many years as possible. There have been rumours about me asking for more money… I just don’t think about that now. I am playing, and that’s the most important thing. Money will come later,” said Toure.

Toure said that he wants to stay with Barcelona, but he’s expecting a significant pay rise, or otherwise he will leave.

“I would love to play with my brother in Arsenal,” said Yaya. However, journalists also asked his agent about the rumoured bids — and he said that there were NO official bids for Yaya.

Q: It seems that Barca has to push hard to win each game. It isn’t going as easy as at the beginning of the season.

A: It’s because of the holidays, and the whole atmosphere. We had a little rest, so it’s natural that our form is down a tiny bit. However, we’re winning and we’re still playing extraordinary, and that’s what’s the most important thing.

Q: The rivals are defending themselves with almost all players.

A: Yes, and we don’t like that. It’s hard to play against a team like that. We like to compete, we like to play football in the real sense of the word. But we have to fight, and win even those games.

Q: You scored a great goal in the last game. How do you feel about it?

A: I’m very happy that I scored. I don’t usually score because I play in a different position, and that’s why the goal was even more delicious.

Q: Will you fight for all three competitions this season?

A: Yes, of course. Every competition is important. We have a big fond of players, and I think we can win all three competitions.
