The former Barcelona player was breathalysed at the roadside then again after his arrest at a police station.
Toure, who has only just been recalled to the Manchester City squad after manager Pep Guardiola was angered by comments made by his agent, was subsequently charged the following day with an offence of driving whilst over the legal limit, the Metropolitan Police confirmed.
A force spokesman confirmed that he’s due to appear on bail at Barkingside Magistrates Court on December 13.
Just days before his arrest, Toure scored twice in his first game for the club since he fell out of favour in the summer.
His goals gave City an away win at Crystal Palace.
Toure came on as a substitute in today’s volatile 3-1 defeat to Chelsea at the Etihad Stadium.
In a statement, the Met said: “Yaya Toure, 33, of Macclesfield, Cheshire, was charged on Tuesday November 29 with a driving offence, namely driving a motor vehicle when alcohol level above the legal limit.
“He will appear on bail at Barkingside Magistrates’ Court on Tuesday, December 13. The charge follows a stop of a car in Dagenham at around 11pm on Monday, November 28.”
Manchester City have declined to comment, saying the matter is a personal issue for Toure.
