Dwight Yorke backs himself to break Celtic and Rangers stranglehold if lands Aberdeen gig

Dwight Yorke believes he could break the Celtic and Rangers stranglehold over Scottish football if he lands the Aberdeen job.

The former Manchester United hitman has admitted it is a 'privilege' to be linked with the vacant hot seat at Pittodrie after the decision to axe Jim Goodwin. There are plenty of names in the frame for the job - many who have much more managerial experience - but he reckons he could do a top job at the Reds, if he was to get the opportunity.

His good pal Mark Bosnich spoke up the credentials of the 51-year-old and even declared that his former team-mate could guide the club to Europa Conference League glory. Yorke laughed off that with a 'promise I haven't paid him to say that' joke but he does believe he would be able to succeed at club and challenge the dominance of the Hoops and Light Blues. It's just a case of waiting to see if anything materialises.
