Legendary former Liverpool player Kolo Touré bumped into a former Anfield teammate earlier this week.

The Ivorian defender, who moved to Celtic last summer after three years on Merseyside, enjoyed a chance meeting with Steven Gerrard – who also played for Liverpool – in Dubai.

Touré has made 12 appearances for the Scottish champions since his move from Liverpool and is currently on holiday in the United Arab Emirates as the Hoops and the rest of the clubs north of the border enjoy their three-week winter break.

Gerrard, who recently called time on his playing career after a spell in Major League Soccer with Los Angeles Galaxy, appeared excited to meet up with his old friend.

Uploading a picture of the pair to his Instagram account, the accompanying caption reads: ‘When you bumped into a good mate at breakfast.’
