Yaya Toure 's agent claims he will definitely leave Manchester City this summer.

Toure will have one year left on his £220,000-a-week contract at the end of this summer and his representative Dimitri Seluk says the midfield star has received "various offers".

Inter Milan 's interest in Toure is long standing and Roberto Mancini signed the Ivory Coast international for City in 2010.

Seluk told FC Inter News: "He'll definitely leave Manchester City, I can calmly confirm that.

"Various offers have arrived for Yaya and we're evaluating them, but no decision has been taken yet for next season."

Inter are prepared to make Toure their best-paid player on over £60,000-a-week, which is significantly less than the African's current salary at City.

But Seluk refused to rule out a move to the San Siro, claiming Toure's decision will not be motivated by money.

"Will the economic aspect make the difference?" he said. "Absolutely not. We don't put money before everything, but the project the club presents us. The best will convince us.

"Inter? We're definitely talking about a great club and everyone knows about the relationship between Yaya and Mancini, but like I've already said, we haven't made any decision yet.

"But I'll add that the Nerazzurri's project is great and Inter is a fantastic club. So it's normal that they want a player of this level."
