Yaya Toure, a former Manchester City and Barcelona midfielder, has spoken out for the first time on the Pep Guardiola’s agenda.
Yaya’s former agent, Dimitri Sulek, has always claimed that he is the reason Guardiola has not won the UCL since his last triumph with Barcelona. He cursed the Spaniard for how he treated Yaya at both Barcelona and City, where Guardiola was the manager on both instances.
On Monday, May 8th, 2023, the Ivorian disassociated himself from the curse via his official Twitter account. He cut himself off from the agent and all he cares about.
My ex-agent is being quoted by the media about a ‘curse’. Please don’t associate me with this nonsense and lazy stereotypes about African curses. Media.. move on, please. This man does not represent me in any way. The amplification of these stereotypes is harmful. The message got through.
Manchester City came the closest to winning the title in recent years when they lost to Chelsea in the final in 2021. However, in order to get to the final, the Cityzens must defeat Real Madrid in the semi-finals.
