Liverpool revealed on Tuesday that they have agreed to sign Ivory Coast defender Kolo Toure when his Manchester City contract expires on July 1.
.
The 32-year-old joined City from Arsenal in a deal reported to be worth £16 million in 2009 and was joined at the club by his younger brother, and fellow Ivory Coast international, Yaya Toure a year later.
.
Kolo Toure was initially installed as City captain, but he lost his place in the starting line-up after being handed a six-month ban for failing a drugs test in March 2011.
.
He claimed he had taken diet pills belonging to his wife and did not know they contained banned substances.
.
Despite his ban, he leaves City with FA Cup and Premier League winners' medals.
.
Kolo Toure's arrival at Anfield will provide Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers with experience at centre-back, following veteran Jamie Carragher's retirement.

He just has a way with top English clubs. I hope he'd be relevant in Liverpool though because age is no longer on his side.
