Journalist Sacha Tavolieri has revealed that Yaya Toure has been offered the assistant head coach role at Standard Liege.
After retiring from the game back in 2020, Toure joined the Hotspur Way set-up during the 2021-22 season and worked within the Tottenham academy while he collected his necessary coaching badges.
Upon the completion of his badges, the 40-year-old took over as Spurs’ Under-16s head coach last summer.
The Man City legend has already had offers to become a manager, including one from Wigan Athletic back in November of last year (Mike Minay), which he turned down in favour of remaining at Tottenham.
Toure revealed in an interview with The Times a couple of weeks ago that while he enjoying his role in the Spurs academy, he is now on the lookout for other opportunities.
Yaya Toure receives coaching offer from Standard Liege
According to Tavoliert’s update, an opportunity might have just opened up for the Spurs Under-16s coach in Belgium.
The journalist has taken to social media to reveal that Standard Liege’s new boss, Carl Hoefkens, wants Toure to join as his assistant ahead of next season.

Spurs Web Opinion
Toure would likely want to serve as an assistant to learn the ropes before jumping into a managerial job.
So, the 40-year-old might be tempted to take this opportunity to try his hand at a relatively big club in a competitive division.
