TOURE THE LATEST PLAYER OFF TO CHINA?
China really are getting into this transfer market lark. After several years of buying jobbing South American players (bar the odd exception), clubs are now throwing around their money like a drunk lottery winner in Gala casino.

Yaya Toure is the latest name mentioned, after Jackson Martinez completed a deal overnight to leave Atletico Madrid for Guangzhou Evergrande. When Jorge Mendes is getting involved, you know things are serious.
In the Daily Telegraph, Matt Law reckons that Toure could earn £30million per year in China, which is enough to make us think about putting on a kit and hanging around a Premier League stadium in vain hope. Works out at £576,923 a week, for those interested in extreme jealousy.
Toure is 32 and, while he’s clearly still important to Manchester City, that’s surely enough money to make anyone consider the offer.
