Celtic boss Brendan Rodgers responds to class Kolo Toure comments

November 19, 2023

It’s wonderful to hear Brendan Rodgers speak so highly of Kolo Toure, considering him one of the kindest individuals he’s encountered in football. Toure’s brief yet impactful tenure at Celtic, both as a player and a coach, made a significant impression on the dressing room and Rodgers.

Rodgers empathized with Toure’s situation at Wigan, relating it to his own career experiences, emphasizing the challenges that arise when starting a managerial journey. He highlighted Toure’s character, experience, and dedication, recognizing his ability to aid players’ development, both on and off the field. Rodgers expressed hope that Toure will receive another opportunity in management, underscoring his contributions and capacity to nurture talent.

Although Toure has been out of management since his time at Wigan, Rodgers believes he deserves another chance in English football. Rodgers remains optimistic that wherever Toure goes, he’ll showcase his abilities, and perhaps, in the future, there could even be a reunion between the two.
