Arsene Wenger is lining up a stunning move to bring Kolo Toure back to Arsenal just over two years after he left the club to join Manchester City according to the Daily Mail.
The Gunners produced a superb performance to beat London rivals Chelsea 5-3 at Stamford Bridge on Saturday although Wenger still has reservations over his defence.
Summer signings Per Mertesacker and Andre Santos were both guilty of naive defending during the victory as the pair along with the rest of the back four made a number of errors during the game.
It’s now thought that the 62-year-old Frenchman is considering a bid to re-sign Toure from City despite the Ivory Coast defender departing the Emirates Stadium in a £16 million deal in 2009.
The 30-year-old is no longer a first team regular at the Etihad Stadium after sitting out the last six months as punishment for failing a drugs test in March.
He is now on a collision course with the club after they moved to withhold substantial image-rights payments which is something Toure is reportedly set to resist.
His days in Manchester look numbered and he could find himself back in North London with Wenger supposedly keen to bring him back to Arsenal in an effort to shore up his error-ridden back four.
