The Daily Mirror is reporting that Yaya Toure is angling for a move away from Barcelona after being left out of the match against Real Madrid. His agent is quoted as saying that Toure would be interested in talking to Chelsea or Manchester United and won't “stay on the bench”.
Barcelona president Joan Laporta has dismissed the talk, saying ” I am not preoccupied by the quotes of the agent. He has also issued warnings at other times, but the footballer is still here.”
Another purported Chelsea target, Sergio Aguero, has said he could leave Atletico Madrid, but won't go until the summer.
More likely to be on the move, however, is Tottenham's Roman Pavlyuchenko. The striker is apparently in talks with Roma ahead of a January move away from White Hart Lane.
In return, Spurs are - if the Daily Mirror is to be believed - after Ivory Coast youngster Seydou Doumbia, who apparently is a very handy striker playing in Switzerland.
Elsewhere, Birmingham boss Alex McLeish has Serbian striking duo? Nikola Zigic and? Milan Jovanovic in his sights as his January transfer targets.
