'I was asking' - Yaya Toure reveals failed attempt to lure Liverpool legend to Man City

Yaya Toure has named both Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane in his top ten list of African players to grace the Premier League, though awarded top spot to Didier Drogba.

Toure, who has spent eight years in the English top flight, was a key player during his time in England and claimed six major trophies during his time with Manchester City. Arriving in the Premier League eight years after his brother's arrival at Arsenal in 2002, the pair spent four years as team-mates at City between 2009 and 2013.
