Barcelona are unsure whether Yaya Toure's decision to join Manchester City was influenced by his brother Kolo Toure. Toure joined Manchester City this week but Rosell revealed he wanted the midfielder to stay at Barca.

"We don't know if it was his agent or his brother (City defender Kolo Toure) who pressured him to leave for City, but we tried (to get him to stay), although when a player is not 150% sure he wants to be at a club, it is better for everyone if they move on," he said.
