Roberto Mancini: Inter Milan "working on" Yaya Toure deal

Roberto Mancini claims that Inter Milan "may try" to lure Manchester City's Yaya Toure to San Siro during a future transfer window.

Inter Milan manager Roberto Mancini has hinted that he will make a move for Manchester City midfielder Yaya Toure during the summer transfer window.

The Ivory Coast international, who is currently away on Africa Cup of Nations duty with his country, has been a key component for the Citizens this term following a period of discontent prior to the season.

Toure first lifted the Premier League title during Mancini's tenure at the Etihad Stadium, and he appears to have attracted the interest of the Italian once more.

"He's one of the best players in the world, he can still have his say," he told Il Giornale. "He played for many teams, in many leagues like Belgium, Spain, Russia, England. He only misses Italy, this may be a good chance for him.

"We're working on it. You know, there are some players who may change team and Yaya is one of them. Next year we may try - we just need three champions to close the gap with Juventus."

Toure has made 26 appearances for City this season, scoring nine goals in the process.
