Toure urges Italian forward to join City

Manchester City defender Kolo Toure has urged Inter Milan forward Mario Balotelli to agree a deal with the Premier League side.

Toure featured for Ivory Coast in a friendly with Balotelli’s Italy last night and the centre-back has revealed that he spoke with the youngster.

Toure said in the Daily Star: “I spoke to him before the end of the match and afterwards. I just told him that we are waiting for him, that’s it. Now we hope that the deal will happen.”

Toure continued: “Mario’s very strong, he’s technically very good, he’s fast. I think he’s a player for the Premier League, definitely.

“His attitude is very good as well, he reminds me of Roy Keane  and Patrick Vieira,  these type of guys.

“They have a really strong mentality and, in the Premier League, we like those kind of players. He’s got everything to be a top player in the Premier League.”
