Agents often get a bad name, and Dimitri Seluk is generally ridiculed in English football, due to how often he is in the news, but there can be no doubt that he earns his keep from Yaya Toure.
Seluk infamously suggested that Yaya Toure was unhappy at Manchester City due to the lack of a birthday cake.
And, the Russian agent also got into a major spat with Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola this season.
So much so that Guardiola ranted that Yaya Toure would not return to the Manchester City side until Seluk apologised.
Yaya Toure back in form
After missing the whole Premier League season until November, Toure did return to the Manchester City team for the win at Crystal Palace, following an apology.
And, as well as scoring two at Selhurst Park, Yaya Toure also scored in the Boxing Day victory over Hull on Monday.
With Toure now back in form and as a key member of the Manchester City side, Seluk has now turned his attention to Manchester United and Paul Pogba.
“Pogba is a good midfielder…”
Earlier this week, Jose Mourinho told French TV that “Paul [Pogba] is a midfielder who will score more and more goals, because I think he has good conditions to score goals. Paul is a midfielder, in my opinion, the best, the best in the world.”
