Toure takes lead as Man City start training in US
- Published
In 31C heat in Boca Raton, Florida, the Manchester City players emerged at the incredible facilities at Lynn University to begin their Club World Cup preparations.
Erling Haaland and co were put through their paces in the team's first training session since arriving in the United States with new signings Tijjani Reijnders, Rayan Cherki, Rayan Ait-Nouri and Marcus Bettinelli all involved with their team-mates for the first time.
The most intriguing aspect of the session was seeing how vocal first team coach Kolo Toure was after the ex-City defender was drafted in from the youth team for this tournament.
The former full-back was barking out instructions and seems to have already forged a good working relationship with new assistant coach Pep Lijnders.
City's training sessions will ramp up over the next few days before beginning their campaign against Moroccan side Wydad AC in Philadelphia on Wednesday.
