Manchester City brothers Yaya and Kolo Toure as well as Chelsea forward Salomon Kalou have withdrawn from the Ivory Coast squad for their friendly against Guinea.

While Yaya travelled to Abidjan for the fixture, the Man City playmaker has since pulled out of the squad along with brother Kolo, who is believed to be suffering from an injury.

Chelsea's Kalou has returned to Stamford Bridge due to administrative problems, which prevented the 26-year-old from turning up to the national team.

Meanwhile, Ivorian striker Didier Drogba was ruled out from international duty earlier this week.
