Ex- FC Barcelona and Manchester City midfielder Yaya Toure has shed light on his relationship with Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp while admitting his feud with Pep Guardiola is still very much alive.
The former Ivory Coast international is widely regarded as one of the best midfielders in Premier League history after his illustrious eight-year spell at the Etihad that saw him win three league titles, two League Cups and one FA Cup in which Toure scored the winner in the final at Wembley. Toure is a popular figure both in the blue half of Manchester and now seemingly the red half of Merseyside as well.
Though Toure featured n a Man City side that beat a Klopp-led Liverpool to the 2017/18 title, the pair are still in communication and remain friends away from football. "Klopp, when he wins games, I text him and he is delighted and he always invites me (to meet him) and texts me back," Toure told The Times. "Does this guy rest? I don’t think so, he loves football. He’s a top, top, guy."
