NEWCASTLE UNITED fans believe the club may have found the new Didier Drogba – and he plays for their club’s development side.
Yannick Toure is just 18 years old but has been playing regularly with the Magpies’ under-23 team since November.
The striker, who was born in Senegal but has Swiss citizenship, was mainly a substitute for the side until fellow attacker Elias Sorenson went on loan to Blackpool in January.
Toure has stepped up to start the last two games for the under-23s, and netted five goals.
And now Toon fans are tipping Toure to have a big future at the club – and are clamouring for him to get some game time with the senior side.
Tweeter TFR Monkey said: “Am getting excited for this player and he’s only 18! If we can keep these players like Sorensen, Roberts and Toure and they can play at premier league level we have a bright future!”
Toon fan Chris Ellison posted: “Announce Toure promoted to first team.”
Dan Simmonite added: “Really impressed by Yannick Toure tonight – fast, powerful and has an eye for goal with a 23 minute hat trick.”
Newcastle’s development squad coach Ben Dawson has been quick to praise the teenager for the work he has put in off the pitch, both to improve as a player and to integrate into the club.
Dawson told the Chronicle: “Elias (Sorensen) came across a little bit younger at 16 and it took him a while to get used to things across here and to develop. Yannick has proven to be the same.
“He is spending around 10 hours a week on his English on top of his training schedule.
“He is working hard off the pitch to try and make those adjustments that we are now seeing the benefits (of) on the pitch.”
