“Definitely. I love this football club,” he told Sky Sports when asked if he wants to stay at Manchester City beyond this season.
Yaya also took the time to praise his manager, Pep Guardiola, for his efforts in getting him back to his best.
“Last year I was overweight, it was a difficult situation, there were a lot of problems with my family. I was talking with him (Pep) most of the time and people were not seeing that on the screen. Those talks will stay between him and me. He knows what I can do and what I’m capable of doing,”
“He’s been honest with me. He is the guy that pushed me up, made me come back and that’s why I’m feeling respectful with him and that’s why I want to show him he was right.”
While Pep and Yaya have had their differences in the past, it appears that they now have a very good relationship.
“He is a special guy in football..” said Touré.
