Controversial agent Dimitri Seluk has claimed that Yaya Toure will see out the remainder of his Manchester City contract at the expense of £10m to his employers.
The former Ivory Coast international is currently locked in a stand-off with the Citizens due to comments made by his agent, with City boss Pep Guardiola demanding an apology before giving Toure a lifeline at the Etihad Stadium.
Seluk has refused to stand down and has only added fuel to the fire in recent days, most recently claiming that the former Barcelona and Bayern Munich boss treats his players "like dogs".
In an interview with The Sun, Seluk has launched his latest attack on Guardiola by accusing the Spaniard of having a 'shit personality'.
"They must say to Guardiola, 'Yaya is our family'. How is it possible to speak like this? It is not correct to do that. It is not correct to give up on a top-class player," he said.
"But this is his decision - he is a good coach but his personality is shit. If Yaya is on the field or not, everyone will ask, 'What is this decision from Guardiola?'
"Normally a person cannot make a decision like this. And it is England, not North Korea or Afghanistan - so people will discuss whether it is right and they will have their opinions. He has a contract until June and he will stay."
Toure, who joined City from Barcelona in 2010 after being overlooked by Guardiola, is understood to collect wages of £220,000 a week at the Etihad.
