Yaya Toure has been talking about one of the big decisions in his life – joining Man City instead of Chelsea way back in 2010, when both clubs were chasing him.
Of course he was a player in demand – hence the two giants being interested – but let’s not forget he exceeded all expectations while at City. Nobody was crying too much when we didn’t sign him at the time.
We’re not sure we agree that joining the richest club in the world (at the time) was a “big risk”, however…
You can see him make his point in the clip embedded here:
🗣️ “It was a big risk. I felt I needed to do more and improve.”
