Yaya Toure won't rule out leaving Manchester City in the summer.
Inter Milan coach Roberto Mancini has spoken openly about a reunion with his former City star - and for Toure, the respect is mutual.
Italian transfer expect Alfredo Pedulla revealed: "City considers him essential for the present and for the future, from England they have already put forward the hypothesis of a future as a director.
"But Yaya wants to play, be happy, so happy to find himself moving to Inter with Mancini, a situation still waiting to be deciphered.
"And there's Barcelona, who knows, maybe he would resume willingly?
"Yaya Touré, for the transfer window, is an interested observer waiting to understand what will happen next season."
