Kolo Toure

Kolo Toure didn't join Liverpool during his peak, but his career at the Anfield was very decent and he definitely deserves to be on our list.

The Ivorian international joined the Reds on a free transfer in the summer transfer window of 2014 and played 46 Premier League games for the club. He is a cult figure among the supporters and is loved immensely.

The former Arsenal defender helped Liverpool reach the finals of the Europa League during the 2015-2016 season, which they eventually lost to Sevilla. He was also a part of the Reds' famous 2013-2014 squad, which helped Liverpool to nearly win the league title for the first time in the Premier League Era.

Toure left Liverpool to join the Scottish Premiership side Celtic in 2016, and announced his retirement just after one season with The Bhoys.
