Inter Milan boss Mancini confident tempting Toure away from Man City

Inter Milan coach Roberto Mancini hopes to tempt Yaya Toure away from Manchester City.

The Sunday Mirror says Italian sources report Toure is ready to accept Mancini's offer to take him to Inter Milan in the summer - and will even accept a 50 per cent pay cut.

The Ivory Coast international , currently away on African Cup of Nations duty, earns a £180,000-a-week basic at City.

But Inter believe he is prepared to accept a £90,000-a-week offer plus bonuses to link up with Mancini once again.

Toure was one of the few City players who didn't fall out with Mancini during the Italian's hugely successful but volatile three-and-a-half-year reign at the Etihad.
