Barcelona midfielder Yaya Toure has poured cold water on the rumours linking him with a move to the Premier League.
The former Monaco player was previously reported to be unsettled at the Camp Nou owing to a difference of opinion with manager Pep Guardiola.
Consequently, the Ivory Coast international had been urged by his brother Kolo Toure to make a switch to Manchester City, but the younger sibling shunned the chance as the Eastlands club would not have been able to guarantee Champions League football.
However, the 26-year-old defensive midfielder was then linked with a move to Chelsea, but it appears that he has his heart set on staying in Catalunya.
"I am happy at Barcelona and I don't think there is a club in the world that is bigger than this one," Toure said, according to The Sun.
"For me, the only priority is that the team keeps on winning."
