Toure's representative Dimitry Seluk stunned Manchester City today by suggesting the midfielder
was set to quit the club following a row over his 31st birthday.
Seluk claimed Toure was considering leaving the Etihad
this summer and that he would be more valued at a club like Liverpool .
And as rumours spread of the Ivorian's unhappiness, he
took to Twitter to try to downplay reports he would be playing for another team
next season.
Jokes aside. Please do not take words that do not come
out of MY mouth seriously. Judge my commitment to @MCFC by my performances.

"Everything Dimitry said is true. He speaks for me.
I will give an interview after the World Cup to explain."
