Toure confirms Man City birthday snub

Yaya Toure has thrown his Manchester City future into doubt by backing up his agent's claims that the club's wealthy owners showed him a lack of respect on his 31st birthday. Dimitri Seluk told BBC Sport that Toure was "very upset" and could leave City.

Toure initially played down the row on Twitter, saying: "Don't take words that do not come from my mouth seriously."

But he then posted : "Everything Dimitri said is true. He speaks for me. I will explain after the World Cup."
