Man City boss Pellegrini coy over new Toure contract offer

Manchester City boss Manuel Pellegrini is tightlipped over offering new terms to Yaya Toure.

Toure's agent Dimitri Seluk claimed last week that the 31-year-old wanted to end his career with the Premier League champions and eventually go on to run the club.

When asked about Seluk's comments, the Chilean said: "That means that Yaya's very happy here.

"He's a player who has a lot of criticism this year, always thinking that he wants to go, but what you are telling me is just the opposite."

On his future, Pellegrini added: "He's very happy here. He's an important player for us so we will see what will happen in the future."
