Yaya Toure’s agent has posted a cryptic message which has claimed the Arsenal and Chelsea target has passed a medical in London.

The experienced 35-year old midfielder has been looking for a club all summer after leaving Manchester City at the end of last season, as boss Pep Guardiola could not guarantee him regular football.

That has led to speculation both Chelsea and Arsenal could offer him a one-year deal, with both keen to add strength in depth to their squads, and both keen to add Toure’s experience to the side.

The former Barcelona midfielder is yet to announce where he will be moving next, but his agent dropped a big hint on Tuesday evening suggesting news of his future is close.

Dimitry Seluk posted on Twitter: “Yaya Toure has passed a medical in London. Yaya is close to signing a new contract.”

Here is what we think.

Despite his age, Toure still showed last season that he would be able to add something to the Arsenal or Chelsea squad, especially since both will be in the Europa League this season and need a big squad to deal with all the games.

But with Chelsea acquiring both Mateo Kovacic and Jorginho in the summer, it is very unlikely the Blues would offer him a deal as they already have a big squad.

However, Arsenal are lacking experienced players and if he is heading to London then the Gunners would be the best move for him right now.

Especially since his confirmed the player is not moving to West Ham or Crystal Palace.
