Fabian Hurzeler, Brighton's manager, is seeking guidance from Yaya Toure, a three-time Premier League champion, as the team pushes for a European spot against Newcastle. Toure's recent visit to Brighton's training ground allowed for valuable exchanges, particularly regarding his rapport with the teamâs African players. Hurzeler emphasized the importance of cultural understanding and Toure's insights as both a major player and a personality the team can learn from. While Brighton vies for eighth place with Fulham and Bournemouth, Newcastle has already secured a European berth and aims for Champions League qualification.
In general, we are a very open club and we always want to learn from other departments and other personalities. He's an unbelievable personality and he was a great player, so therefore we had two aspects when he was here.
He has a good relationship to the African players, and I think it's very important we have someone there who can talk with the players, who has an understanding of where they come from, how is the culture there and what are their needs.
