Reports claim Inter are preparing a huge contract worth £9.5 million per season to try to tempt Yaya Toure from Manchester City.
Inter head coach Roberto Mancini has said he would exploit any opportunity to sign Yaya Toure, should the Ivorian express a desire to leave current club Manchester City.

The Ivorian midfielder is known to be one of coach Roberto Mancini’s most desired players, with the pair having worked together at Manchester City.
Mancio has previously told sporting director Piero Ausilio to stump up the cash for 31-year-old, and the Daily Mirror claims that the Nerazzurri are ready to do just that.
The newspaper speculates that the Beneamata would offer a five-year contract worth a total of €74m, working out at around €13m per season.
That would make Toure comfortably the highest-paid player in Serie A, but it’s unclear how Inter would square that with their Financial Fair Play obligations.
Speculation this morning suggested that Mancio would be willing to lose Mateo Kovacic and Samir Handanovic to secure Toure.
