Manchester City midfielder Yaya Toure will leave the Premier League champions at the end of the season.

The 34-year-old will make his final appearance against Brighton on Wednesday, said boss Pep Guardiola.

"Yaya came here at the start of the journey," said Guardiola.

"Where we are now is because of what he has done."

"We cannot forget the period from Roberto Mancini, and especially Manuel Pellegrini, Yaya was the key player.

"The Brighton game we will give him what he deserves, one of the most beautiful farewells a player can receive.

"All the game will we be focused on winning for Yaya, we are going to try to do it for him."
