Inter Milan manager Roberto Mancini has stepped up his charm offensive in an attempt to spark a move for Manchester City midfielder Yaya Toure . The former City manager wants to bring Toure to Milan after his spell as boss of the Ivorian midfielder powerhouse at the Etihad Stadium between 2010 and 2013 . And Mancini has cheekily hinted that Toure would fancy a move to Italy after a difficult season with City chasing Chelsea in the Barclays Premier League title race . Yaya Toure ( left ) is wanted by Roberto Mancini ( right ) at Inter Milan after their time at Manchester City . Mancini poses with Aleksandar Kolarov , David Silva , Toure and Jerome Boateng ( L-R ) when signing them . 'Yaya has played in every top League , apart from Germany and Italy , ' Mancini said . 'If , as it seems , he wants to have an experience in Italy , then there is this possibility he could come here . 'It won ’ t be easy , but he ’ s a player with incredible technique and character . Would Inter be his first choice ? That ’ s certain . ' Mancini claims Toure 'seems ' to want a move to Inter Milan despite having two years left on his City contract . Mancini is back as Inter Milan manager and wants to bring high-profile players to Italy 's Serie A. Toure has two years left on his City contract , and there seems no chance that the Premier League champions would be interested in selling a star player and part of the spine of Manuel Pellegrini 's team . And Pellegrini has spoken out previously to confirm that Toure will not be leaving - not that it 's stopping Mancini . Last month Pellegrini said : ' I don ’ t have an opinion about what another manager says about Yaya . 'Of course , every manager of every team would want Yaya in their team but I don ’ t have anything to say about that . ' Toure rues a missed chance for City - and he has struggled to match their usual standards at times this year . Manuel Pellegrini says Mancini can forget about signing Toure but the Italian wo n't seem to back down . And Mancini certainly seems interested in his former players , having also tried to sign City youth product from Fiorentina , where he is on loan , in January . 'We did try to get him , as he was my player at City , ' Mancini told Gazzetta TV . 'Fiorentina seemed open to it , but the move didn ’ t go through . ' Mancini 's Inter are struggling in Serie A this season and face missing out on Champions League football again , with the Nerazzurri sitting ninth in the table .
Inter Milan manager Roberto Mancini wants Manchester City 's Yaya Toure . Toure played under Mancini in City 's Premier League winning side of 2012 . Mancini says it seems Toure wants to move to Italy with Inter his No 1 pick . City are unlikely to want to sell such a key player despite Toure being 31 .
