Kanu, Okocha are my football idols – Yaya Toure

Manchester City’s Yaya Toure has named Nigerian legend, Jay Jay Okocha, Kanu Nwankwo among his football idols while expressing his unending love for horror movies.

The four-time African best footballer also stated that his football myth is wearing the left leg of his shoes before the right’s.

The 33-year old midfielder who is out of favour in Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City revealed that whenever he is back from training, he watches four to five horror movies in a day.


He told the BBC, “Kanu Nwankwo, Jay Jay Okocha, Abedi Pele, I have so many. Impossible to mention. So many.

“I love horror movies. Sometimes, I’ll be able to watch four or five in the same day because after training I stay at home just boring myself in a movie.

“I have always been doing the same thing, left shoe before right shoe as a superstition.”
