Current African
player of the year Yaya Toure named an all-time dream team in a
sponsorship video for Nissan. The captain of the Ivorian national
team suprisingly did not mention any African legend in his best XI which reveals a star-studded list including Barcelona's Lionel Messi,
Toure however join in the Messi/Ronaldo rivalry by not including
Real Madrid's Cristiano Ronaldo in his dream-team.
The Manchester City
player includes legends Pele, Zinedine Zidane, Diego Maradona and
Roberto Baggio. Former Arsenal skipper Patrick Vieira made the cut in
midfield while former Manchester United player and World Cup winner
Fabian Barthez was Toure's No. 1 pick. Brazil's 2002 World Cup
winning captain also made the team as well as Italy and AC Milan star
Franco Baresi.
Aside from not
including any African player, the 31-year-old player also did not
include any Englishman in his ultimate side.
Toure will not be
joining in the Championship action with his side Tuesday night
against Bayer Munich due to a suspension.
He would have at least name one African player, Drogba or Okocha, come-on Toure!
