Manchester City have completed the signing of Ivory Coast midfielder Yaya Toure on a five-year deal. The 28-year-old finalised his move to Eastlands this week following the end of his country's involvement in the World Cup. The signing is City's second of the week following the capture of David Silva from Valencia and unites Toure with his brother Kolo, the club's captain. City manager Roberto Mancini told the club's official website: "This is another fantastic signing for Manchester City and I am very pleased Yaya has joined us, he is a very good player. "Everyone knows Yaya is a player that we have admired for a long time and we would like to welcome him to Manchester City. "He has played at the top level with Barcelona and I am sure his experience and ability will be very important for us."
