Is Yaya Toure Heading To Greece?

By Harry Morgan

Yaya Toure may not be joining a club in England, after all, as the former Manchester City midfielder has been linked with a move to Greece.

Yaya Toure has been without a club since he was released by Manchester City in 2018, and reports in England suggest he is on the brink of signing for Olympiakos.

This would be a sharp turnaround for the player whose agent, Dimitry Seluk, has claimed was joining a club in London.

Seluk tweeted on Tuesday the bulky midfielder would be playing again in England with a tweet that the player had passed medicals with a London club.

Seluk was not specific on the exact club, but ruled out West Ham and Crystal Palace in two subsequent tweets.

“It's not West Ham, 100%. Yaya is a champion. The last place is not for him.”

"It's not Crystal Palace, 100%. Roy Hodgson said he doesn't know when his players' birthdays are. Can Yaya go there?”
