Former Manchester City star Yaya Toure has praised manager Pep Guardiola for his part in developing Raheem Sterling into a top-class talent.
Sterling arrived at the Etihad Stadium from Liverpool in 2015 and played alongside Toure until the Ivorian departed for Olympiakos last summer.
Per the Mirror's Darren Lewis, Toure credited Guardiola for the improvement in Sterling's game since he took over as coach in 2016.
"He is a top manager," Toure said. "Pep is the type of guy who can take a talent and get it to its maximum level.
