Arsenal to make a bid for Toure
British press reports that the English football giants Arsenal are ready to make a bid for Barcelona’s midfielder Yaya Toure in January. Arsenal’s manager Arsene Wenger likes Toure and would love him in his team. Another reason is that Yaya’s brother, Kolo Toure, plays in Arsenal. The transfer fee would be around $9 million.
However, Toure himself has denied exit rumours. “I am very happy in Barcelona. I am not thinking about leaving,” said Toure at a press conference.
