🗣️ Yaya Touré: “When I arrived at Barcelona, many didn’t know who I was. I had to fight for a place in a midfield full of stars. Guardiola asked me to play as a center back in a Champions League final, and even though it wasn’t my position, I accepted because I understood that the team was above everything. That day I learned that sacrifice also makes you great.

Then at Manchester City I found my home. Scoring that free-kick goal against Newcastle in 2012, or the goal in the FA Cup final against United, were moments that made me feel like the leader of a historic project.

I always wanted to show that African players could be protagonists at the elite level, not just complements. And if I managed to open doors for others, then my career was worth it.”
