Former Manchester City and Barcelona midfielder Yaya Toure has been appointed as an assistant coach at Ukrainian Premier League club Olimpik Donetsk.

The 37-year-old, who started basic coaching experience in England, is now expected to assist Ihor Klymovskyi. 

“I started my professional career in Donetsk. Now I am here to start my coaching path. Of course, I understand that Olimpik is not Metallurg, but I remember well how friendly and open people were in Donetsk. I am very impressed by the local mentality,” Toure told the club website.

“To be honest, even my agent was surprised when he found out that I wanted to study to be a coach in Ukraine, but I was firm in my decision.

“It is not so easy to find a place where you can calmly, without unnecessary pressure, study, where you will be accepted as a friend.”


The Ukrainian Premier League is still in its winter break, with action expected to resume on February 13.

Meanwhile, Olimpik Donetsk are seventh in the league table with 17 points from 12 games - 13 points behind leaders Dynamo Kyiv
