Yaya Toure sends ‘final message’ to Manchester City fans

Yaya Toure has sent a ‘final message’ of gratitude to Manchester City fans as he departs the club.

The Cote d'Ivoire international ended his eight-year stay at the Etihad Stadium outfit after leading City past Bridgton and Hove Albion at the Etihad Stadium last week Wednesday.

The midfielder joined the Citizens from Barcelona in the summer of 2010 and was instrumental in the positioning of the club as one to reckon with in Europe.

Toure featured in 230 English Premier League games, scoring 59 times. He helped them to three Premier League titles, two League Cups, one FA Cup and Community Shield.
