The Ivorian defender impressed during Gallants' run in the CAF Confederation Cup, where they reached the semi-finals.

After Gallants were relegated, Toure has now earned himself a move back to the DStv Premiership ahead of the new season.

“Touré is undoubtedly one of the very best defenders in our league and an important signing for our club,” Barker said, according to the club's website.

“He showed his qualities throughout last season with Marumo Gallants, including outstanding performances in the Confederations Cup.

“He is a physically commanding centre-back who is good with the ball at his feet, and we believe that he will be a big addition to our squad.”
