Sometime ago, Yaya Toure accused Pep Guardiola of “having problems with Africans”.
Speaking to France Football, the Ivory Coast midfielder said: “He [Guardiola] insists he has no problems with black players, because he is too intelligent to be caught out.
“But when you realise that he has problems with Africans, wherever he goes, I ask myself questions. He will never admit it.
“But the day he will line up a team in which we find five Africans, not naturalised, I promise I will send him a cake.”
Manchester City and Guardiola kept mute until the Spaniard was asked about Toure’s comments in a recent interview in which he responded saying: “It is a lie; he knows it.
“We were together two years and it is only now when he says it. He never told me face to face.”
Toure left City in May at the expiration of his contract after eight seasons at the club.
