"Manchester City" has retained experienced Yaya Toure - the Ivory Coast footballer has extended his contract with the "citizens" for another year. The 34-year-old defender's contract with the Manchester team was supposed to expire this summer, but both sides decided to extend their cooperation for another year. Y. Toure was in uncertainty at the beginning of the season - his coach Pep Guardiola didn't even include him in the squad for the UEFA Champions League group stage. However, later the African gained proper fitness and became an indispensable player in the starting lineup, solving all the problems in the midfield. This season, the footballer played 31 matches for the "Man City" team, scored seven goals, and provided three assists. Y. Toure arrived at "Man City" back in 2010. During this time, the midfielder managed to play almost 300 matches and become the English champion twice.
