Manchester City midfielder Yaya Toure has released a statement apologising to fans and manager Pep Guardiola, ahead of a potential comeback to the first-team squad.
Pep Guardiola, who sold Toure to Man City six years ago when he was in charge of Barcelona, had fallen out with the midfielder’s agent, Dimitri Seluk, and both decided to play a game of hard ball.
Toure took to Facebook to tender his apology;
“I wish to apologise – on behalf of myself and those who represent me – to the management team and all those working at the club for the misunderstandings from the past”
“Those statements do not represent my views on the club or the people who work there.
“I have nothing but respect for Manchester City and only wish the best for the football club.
“I am immensely proud to have played a part in the club’s history and want to help City succeed further. I live to play football and entertain the fans.
“On that note, I would like to thank all of the fans for their messages through this difficult period. This means a great deal to me and my family.”
