All the big papers in Italy report that Piero Ausilio will be flying to Madrid tonight to watch the game at the Bernabeu. The objective is to watch Real-Manchester City and get a closer look at Pablo Zabaleta and Yaya Touré.
“Seeing how important the game is, it is hard to imagine an actual transfer meeting with the English directors taking place. But some kind of contact will be made of course. And it is from there that you can begin to work. Also, with the arrival of Pep to replace Pellegrini at the end of summer there is still a need to understand which players the Catalan coach will want to keep.”
Both players seem at the end of their road at City and could reunite with their old coach Mancini at Inter. Bearing in mind though that Touré is 33 years old and Zabaleta 31. Il Corriere dello Sport underlines that considering the ages and FFP Inter need to consider the risk and that the economic aspect will be very important.

Touré proved yesterday that he is ready for a chinese adventure…
Sell Rano 10 million, Dodo 8 million, Medel 15 million, Jovetic 15 million. So we have 48 million.
Erkin and Banega free.
Buy Biglia 15 million, AMR between Berradi or Candreva 25 million sime vrsaljko 8 million. So we just need 48 million.
You seem to forget we need to pay for many of these players first; Dodo, Jovetic and even Broso if we want to keep and THEN sell them…
not to mention there is no way anyone is going to pay 18m for Dodo and Ranocchia (nor Biglia could be purchased for 15)
Damn…you’re right.
I have a hard time believing in this team with Mancini as coach. Don’t need more players to switch lineups on a weekly basis, especially expensive players 2-3 years past their prime. Sell both #10s last season and now there is very little creativity if any to help score goals. #manciniout
is pirlo still in the game ?? what jerks !
Toure could be our new Cambiasso.
you mean ” a YOUNG CAMBIASSO” ??
i saw him today after a long time since I don’t follow the pl and I have to retract my perevius opinion on him, he too fat we would not need him he cannt even walk lol
He has the leadership and brain, and we miss these two in our midfield.
True we need a leader! And Toure would also be the perfect role model for Kondogbia to learn from
That’s exactly what I think!
hahaha did u see him in more than three matches this season??? he is shit all season long and he will just became worst… we dont need another washed up old players. i prefer we bring back cambiasso then this lazy ass!!!
in all honesty I haven´t seem him much this year – I dont watch the PL … has he been shitty? I mean he´s playing all games for City both Sundays and Wednesdays!
at what cost? he will take space of a youngster that can develop and he wont get better neither
Rather sign Motta or Xabi 🙂
Xabi is a dream and Motta is far too past his prime.
Did you see him play last night?
you mean walk like a handicap?
Indeed, it was pitiful. Up to two seasons ago he was a beast, nowadays he is a shell of himself
its a game of young players, with and exception of few like pirlo, zanetti, buffon, and this toure guy which has a huuuuuuuuuuge ego is gonna ask for a salary that equals the whole team lol
The manager was was pussy to let him play. If he played a match like that in such a huge match for the club then I can only imagine how pathetic he looked in training with nothing on the line
lol, he substituted him fast after seeing the sloppy walking and the ball give away he was doing, I think he is the heaviest player to play the game, and has a big belly
That couldnt have been the whole story in why he played like that, the toure we all know and adore is still there, heck he knows what it takes to win maybe he needs a fresh challenge
Yep. City was shit, and he couldn’t do better with his shitty teammates.
Zabaleta?!?! I know that Mancini is delusional, but that’s going too far! I don’t think that Mancini deserves another season. But if he’s going to stay, I’m pretty sure, that he doesn’t have to be involved in ‘mercato’. I don’t trust him and believe much more in Ausilio decisions.
Toure to teach the youngsters won’t be bad, but Zabaleta sounds like the next Vidic…
toure is very bad now days he is like 120kg easily
at 6ft 2″ and 120kg, Toure would be classified as obese….. Yeah…. somehow I don’t think so…..
Mancini will destroy our club, he is adamant on Toure and other veteran players. These veteran players wages are way too high… If we had a CL caliber team I would be all in for players like Toure and Zabelta because they would add depth and experience like Pirlo did for Juve, but we don’t have a CL team.
Vidic*uhukk*
Ex world class players that are no longer needed in their team. Ffs, why would they be good for us? They would ask for over 5m per season for more than 1 year and I don’t think they can perform well even in a single season.
