Manchester City Midfielder Yaya Toure and Pep Guardiola look to have finally kissed and made up after the Ivory Coast player apologised for comments made by his agent Dimitri Seluk. The disagreement arose after Pep excluded Toure from Manchester City's Champions League squad.

In a statement released by Toure the midfielder said:

I wish to apologise - on behalf of myself and those who represent me.

I have nothing but respect for Manchester City and only wish the best for the football club.

I am immensely proud to have played a part in the club's history and want to help City succeed further. I live to play football and entertain the fans.

On that note, I would like to thank all of the fans for their messages through this difficult period. This means a great deal to me and my family.

After City's Champions League squad was announced Seluk said Toure, had been "humiliated". This lead to a Guardiola  insisting Toure would not feature again until he received an apology from Seluk.
