FC Barcelona have reached an agreement with AS Monaco for the transfer of Yaya Touré. The Ivory Coast midfielder will be officially unveiled on Tuesday.

Hot on the heels of Thierry Henry it’s now the turn of Yaya Touré. The 24-year-old midfielder will become Barça’s second close season signing subject to a medical.

Touré will undergo his medical in the Camp Nou on Tuesday morning before signing his contract.

At about 1 pm there will be a press conference in the Paris Room of the Camp Nou – as in the case of Thierry Henry – to present Barça's latest signing.
