West Ham are leading Premier League club in race for Man City legend Yaya Toure, say the bookies

West Ham are the leading Premier League club in the bookies' market as the Manchester City legend could return to the English top flight.

The Irons are joint-second favourites to be the Ivorian's next club at 10/1 alongside Ligue 1 outfit Marseille.

Meanwhile the bookies expect a lucrative switch for the 35-year-old, with any Chinese team and any MLS side joint favourites at just 2/1.

Elsewhere Nottingham Forest, Rangers and Wolves are also 16/1 to strike a move.

Toure is a free agent after his second spell with Olympiacos was cut short by "mutual agreement".

Yaya Toure next club odds

Oddschecker spokesperson Callum Wilson: “Toure certainly isn't short of Premier League pedigree, but he was firmly out of favour at City before departing for Greece.

“In the twilight of his career at 35, his next destination certainly looks likely to be a less demanding league."

Toure only featured for Olympiacos four times this season in both the league and the Europa League.
