The agent of Barcelona midfielder Yaya Toure believes that his client is far more likely to join Arsenal rather than Manchester City this summer.

The 27-year-old Ivory Coast international seems certain to leave the Camp Nou after the World Cup finals, with England his most likely destination.

Agent Dimitri Seluk told TV station Rac-1: "There's a lot of interest in the deal for Toure. Arsene Wenger likes him and Arsenal are interested.

"If the conditions are good, everything can be finalised soon.

"He could come into the Cesc Fabregas deal, but Barca and Arsenal are struggling to come to an agreement.

"Everything has changed with City, because they talk a lot but then afterwards they don't appear to be a rich club, but rather a bankrupt one."
