Former Manchester City captain Yaya Toure joins Chinese second-tier side Qingdao Huanghai

Three times Premier League champion Toure has been without a club since leaving Olympiacos in December, terminating his contract by mutual consent after a disappointing brief return to his former club.

Toure denied suggestions last month that he had subsequently retired as he is hungry to keep playing and insisted he still has 'a few more years' left.

Toure has also been the subject of interest from the Middle East but moving to China will allow him to resume playing straight away with the League One season underway and running until November.

Qingdao Huanghai is currently at the top of the Chinese second-tier.
