Yaya Toure could be named in Manchester City squad for Champions League knockout stages

Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has hinted newly in-favour Yaya Toure could return to their European squad after Christmas as the midfielder trained with the rest of the squad on Monday.

Toure had only played once all season before last weekend after falling out with Guardiola, and was not included in the 25-man list for the Champions League group stages.

The Ivorian was brought in from the cold for the Premier League game against Crystal Palace, and scored both City goals in the 2-1 win, and despite not being available for Tuesday's clash with Borussia Monchengladbach he was firmly involved in training drills with the rest of the squad.
