The father of Manchester City midfielder Yaya Toure has urged City manager Pep Guardiola to "come back down to Earth" and give his son another chance, The Sun has reported.
Guardiola this week said he would not pick midfielder Toure again unless he received an apology from Seluk for comments he made in the media.
The Sun quoted the 33-year-old's father Mory as saying: "I'm worried about him. It's a problem.
"We ask Guardiola to come down to Earth. He's the boss. I ask him for forgiveness, to let my son do his work."
Guardiola has said Toure will not play for City again until Seluk apologises for remarks he made when the player was not included in City's squad for the Champions League.
But the agent has stepped up his war of words with the former Barcelona manager and on Friday accused him of treating players "like dogs."
Seluk, who claimed Guardiola had humiliated Toure by leaving him out of the Champions League squad, told the BBC's World Football Podcast: "Pep Guardiola -- he thinks only about himself. He thinks he is already God.
"He won many titles with Barcelona but Yaya also won the same titles with Barcelona. Pep thinks now he has won everything and he can do what he wants.
"For me, very strange things [have happened] in Manchester City because Yaya played with them many years, [Joe] Hart played with them many years, [Vincent] Kompany played many years, and [in] comes a new coach and says: 'OK, these players [are] out like dogs."'
