Yaya Toure should consider leaving Manchester City to join Marseille in January, his brother Kolo has said.
The midfielder has been frozen out of the first team under Pep Guardiola ever since the City manager became angered by critical comments from the 33-year-old's agent, Dimitri Seluk.
"He still has talent and some things to prove," he told RMC. "Of course it's difficult at City at the moment. We've all been through that. We're at the top and at some point you go down.
"He has to understand that and maybe go for a change of air, to go somewhere where people want you.
"Honestly, I haven't talked to him about that [Marseille]. He's still at City, I respect that. But OM is a great club. He knows the French championship well, so it could be a great club for him."
Rudi Garcia was appointed as head coach shortly after McCourt bought the club from Margarita Louis-Dreyfus, and a number of players have been linked with a January switch to Stade Velodrome, including Chelsea midfielder John Obi Mikel and Inter's Geoffrey Kondogbia.
