Toure 'refuses' to play as Man Utd in FIFA tournament

Manchester City midfielder Yaya Toure jokingly refused to play as Manchester United during a recent FIFA 15 tournament as he was worried about coming across as a "traitor".

The 31-year-old joined Samir Nasri, Sergio Aguero and Dedryck Boyata in a best of three showdown on the hit game.

It was suggested by Nasri that Toure should represent city rivals United in order to keep the competitive spirit high, although the Ivorian quipped: "United? No, no! Are you crazy? That would make us traitors!"

Toure has made 23 appearances for the Citizens this season, scoring seven times.
