Asked about the renewal of Barcelona defensive midfielder and Ivory Coast international Yaya Touré (26) (read more here), the player's agent Dimitri Seluk has said in an interview with Spanish radio station Onda Cero that the deal could be signed on Thursday:"We know the positions of all parties involved and we agree on the main things. If everything goes like planned we'll sign the contract at the end of this week. I hope Yaya will be able to come to Barcelona on Thursday, so he could also put his signature.
Touré isn't worried about the rumours saying that Mascherano could join Barcelona. Mascherano is the one who should be worried if he comes to Barcelona because he will have to sit on the bench and maybe play for only ten minutes each game, like is happening with some players at Barça at this moment."

Yaya is great but he should tell his agent his fee will drop by ten per cent with every interview he gaves.

his agent is certainly a BIG SHOT! But Pep Guardiola please make him an attacking midfielder if we ever get mascherano...
