Veteran Liverpool defender Kolo Toure has jokingly talked
up a move to La Liga giants Real Madrid as he contemplates
his future.
Toure is out of contract at the end of the season, though it
remains to be seen whether the 34-year-old will remain at
Anfield.
Liverpool have suffered a defensive injury crisis, with Dejan
Lovren, Martin Skrtel and Mamadou Sakho all sidelined.
Toure, who made a rare start in Liverpool's 1-0 win over
Stoke City in the first leg of the League Cup semi-finals on
Tuesday, battled through a muscle problem and the pain
barrier in an inspiring display at the Britannia Stadium and
the Ivorian believes some of the world's best could come
calling if he maintains his form.
"If I can play like that then maybe I will go to Real Madrid,"
Toure said.
"I don't know what I'll do at the end of this season, but I'd
like to stay in the Premier League.
"My kids are here and it is difficult to move. I am loving
every day but God knows where I will be in a year’s time.
"But I hope it's playing football because I love it."
