Yaya Toure has signed for Chinese second division club
Qingdao Huanghai.
The former Manchester City and Barcelona midfielder has
announced he has made the move two months after dismissing reports that he had
retired to move into coaching.
The 36-year-old had a brief spell at Olympiakos last season
after leaving City in 2018.
Toure, who has also posted pictures of himself with a
Qingdao shirt, wrote on www.officialyayatoure.com: “Since
the start of my football career, I have always loved challenges and now I have
decided to take this new challenge and make history once again with Qingdao
Huanghai Football Club.
“This is a very exciting young club with a lot of potential
and we share the same philosophy – that is to play beautiful football! It will
be my great honour to grow and succeed with this club.
“I believe my experiences in football will offer something
new to this growing club and together we can make great history! I can’t wait
to let my football do the magic once again, let’s enjoy football together!”
