Roberto Mancini open to Yaya Toure reunion

Inter Milan coach Roberto Mancini says that he would be open to re-signing Manchester City midfielder Yaya Toure.

Roberto Mancini has revealed that he would not be averse to a reunion with unsettled Manchester City midfielder Yaya Toure at Inter Milan.

Toure's long-term future at Eastlands remains in doubt after the 31-year-old recently claimed that he would be open to "new challenges" following a trying season.

Former Sky Blues boss Mancini brought the Ivorian to England from Barcelona in 2010, with speculation mounting that the Italian will re-sign him for Inter in the summer.

"Yaya Toure is a Manchester City player and they're a massive club," he told reporters.

"I don't know whether there's a chance, but I think that given that Yaya has played in almost every European league, maybe it's important to him to come to Italy.

"Inter are an important club, not just any old club. He can play anywhere in midfield."

Toure, whose contract expires in 2017, has netted 62 times in 217 appearances for the reigning Premier League champions.
