Before the Champions League semi-final between "Manchester City" and Madrid's "Real," there were traditionally rumors in the media that former Yaya Toure's club is cursed.
A few years ago, it was announced that Yaya Toure, who had a difficult split with "Manchester City," cursed his former club with African shamans, preventing them from winning the Champions League. This information was previously disclosed by his former security agent.
So far, "Manchester City" has not won the Champions League and has experienced several failures over the years, including last year's semi-final against "Real."
Y. Toure decided to deny these rumors on his Twitter account: "My former agent is being quoted by the media about a ‘curse’. Please don’t associate me with this nonsense and lazy stereotypes about African curses!? 🤔 Media… move on please. This man does not represent me in any way. Amplifying these stereotypes is harmful."
The first leg of the semi-final between Madrid's "Real" and "Manchester City" will start at 10 p.m.
