Man City midfielder Toure sitting on £60M personal fortune

Manchester City midfielder Yaya Toure has raked in almost £60 MILLION over the past seven years.

The Daily Mail says since making his big-money move to Barcelona in 2007, Toure has earned approximately £47m in wages alone. That includes contracts of around £40,000-a-week at Barcelona and a weekly wage of more than £200,000 at City.

It's not just wages that Yaya pockets - in his time at City the midfielder has earned around £6m in image rights and £4m in bonuses.

This week, Toure claimed he could quit City after the club forgot his 31st birthday.
