Nerazzurri boss Roberto Mancini has made no secret of his desire to be reunited with the 31-year-old Ivorian in the summer.

Mancini signed Toure during his time in charge of City, where they went on to win the Premier League, FA Cup and Community Shield together.

The former Barcelona ace was heavily linked with a move to local rivals Manchester United last summer.

"We must respect certain parameters but we will do everything possible to make him happy within those parameters."
