Despite Yaya Toure's lastest claims that he would do everything to quit Manchester City, the club will not sell the midfielder.

An Ivory Coast teammate of Toure's has said that the midfielder has had enough of City's hierarchy and would not stay with them.

The unnamed player said that Toure would do everything to ensure his departure this summer, The Mirror reported.

Toure claimed in May that it would be an honour to play for Paris St Germain and they are one of the few clubs who could afford the midfielder's vast transfer fee and 2,20,000 pounds-a-week salary at City.

The Ivory Coast star has reportedly been unsettled since accusing City of not making a big enough fuss of his 31st birthday.

 

Toure also claimed that he was not excused from City's end-of-season tour to Abu Dhabi to spend time with his terminally ill brother Ibrahim, who died last month.

City has no plans to sell Toure and expect him to join up with them after his summer break during their USA tour later this month, the report added.
