Turkish club Bursaspor are preparing a move for the Ivory Coast central defender.
But City are keen on getting a fee for Toure — even though he has only one year left on his current deal at the Etihad.
Clubs in the Middle East are also keeping tabs on the former Arsenal star and could offer him a lucrative end to his successful career.
Toure, 31, became a vital player for boss Roberto Mancini when both Vincent Kompany and Joleon Lescott got injured in March.
But his only appearance during a tense run-in was a five-minute cameo as a sub in the win at Wolves in April.
City insist they will not let him go on a free and are in no rush to sell as his presence at the club helped brother Yaya Toure settle in.
However, they are aware Kolo wants more first-team football and he will not get that with the champions.
