WENGER NEARLY BOUGHT YAYA TOURE AT 15 YEARS.

Arsene Wenger the French coach of Arsenal , is well known for locating real young talent. So it was with Yaya Toure the younger brother of Kolo Toure, who was already at Arsenal then.
Wenger called him over to Arsenal for a trial at 15 years , and then he was a average player, the reason being he was a confused player he wanted to play as a second striker, a midfielder and also a defender,so Yaya Toure did not do any justice to his football then.
But at the age of 15 years he could not get a European passport , or at 15 England will not give you a work permit.
Yaya Toure then joined a club in the Ukraine , Barcelona then picked him up , and then sold him to Manchester City.
By the way Ardene Wenger could not buy Petr Cech the Czech Republic goalkeeper , as he to could not get a work permit.
