Chelsea are the most likely club to sign Barcelona midfielder Yaya Toure, according to his agent.
The Barcelona midfielder has been linked with a move away from the Nou Camp for some time, given his failure to hold down a starting eleven place last season. Arsenal have long been linked to the 27-year-old, but according to the Spanish daily ‘Sport’, Toure’s agent, Dimmitri Selluk said that Chelsea are best placed to land the Ivory Coast international.
According to ‘Sport’, Barcelona boss Pep Guardiola is not looking to offload Toure to Chelsea or anyone else. Toure is in his plans, but equally Guardiola would prefer to see an unhappy player leave rather than negatively influence the dressing room.
‘Sport’ speculates that Chelsea boss Carlo Ancelotti would have to pay between 30-35 million Euros to capture Toure, who has 45 international caps. It is thought that the Chelsea futures of both Joe Cole and Michael Ballack are uncertain, leaving possible room for a new midfielder at Stamford Bridge.
