Former Manchester City and Barcelona midfielder Yaya Toure has been named assistant manager of Olimpik Donetsk, the Ukrainian Premier League club said on Wednesday.

The 37-year-old former Ivory Coast international worked with English sides Queens Park Rangers and Blackburn Rovers to gain his coaching badges after ending his playing career at Chinese club Qingdao Huanghai last year.

“It’s great to be back in the Ukraine to continue my coaching journey,” Toure wrote on Twitter. “Thank you to Olympic Donetsk for the wonderful welcome.”
