Toure’s agent Dimitri Seluk claims his client would be keen on a move to Arsenal.
Barcelona had a £29million bid for Fabregas rejected by Arsenal last week.
Seluk told Rac-1: “There’s a lot of interest in the deal [for Toure], Arsene Wenger likes him and Arsenal are interested. If the conditions are good, everything can be finished soon.
“He could come into the Cesc deal and Barca and Arsenal are struggling to come to an agreement. Everything has changed with City, because they talk a lot but then afterwards they don’t appear to be a rich club but rather a bankrupt one.”
