In an interview with the British media, the Ukrainian claimed Toure would stay at the club despite the 'unappreciative' and 'disrespectful' treatment shown him on his 31st birthday. He suggested that the promise of a coaching position or sporting director's role after retirement atthe club would calm Toure's nerve and get to reconsider his exit threats.

The agent said: ''Of course. like Real Madrid did with Zidane for example. Zidane played then after he started working for the club.

''Yaya needs the club in the future. We don't want any more pounds, not longer contract, nothing like this, only really attention.''

He emphasized that the bases for Yaya Toure's upheaval is simply to be recognised and not for more pounds when he said: ''We don't want any more pounds, not a longer contract, nothing like this, only real attention.
