Former Manchester City star Yaya Touré has been appointed as the new head coach of Slovakian side Slovan Bratislava. This marks Touré’s first managerial position after retiring as a player in 2019. Prior to this appointment, the 43-year-old Ivorian gained coaching experience through assistant roles and work with youth academies, including a stint at Tottenham. He previously coached in both Russia and Ukraine, building a foundation for his current opportunity. Slovan Bratislava competes in the Champions League, offering Touré a high-profile platform to begin his head coaching career. The club hopes Touré’s experience and profile will elevate their performance both domestically and in European competition.
