Fofana eager to don Man City shirt alongside influential Toure

Manchester City starlet Seko Fofana has revealed that his dream is to play alongside his inspiration Yaya Toure.

The France U19 international, who has just completed an impressive loan spell at Championship side Fulham, has been likened to his compatriot Patrick Vieira but says he is eager to grace the field next to Ivorian powerhouse Toure.

"I want to continue to play regularly to progress," he told Sky Sports. "But it's one of my objectives to play for the first team in the future.

"Yaya Toure is a player who inspires me a lot.

"He has a huge influence on Man City's style and I have learned from watching him play.

"I play football management games and select myself alongside Toure.

"I keep working hard to achieve that.

"It would be an honour to wear the Man City first-team shirt."
