Former Manchester United striker Dwight Yorke has been installed as the new head coach of Australian A-League outfit Macarthur FC, signalling his first job in football management.
The former United ace, who scored 66 goals in 152 games for the Old Trafford club, has put pen to paper on a two-year deal and will officially take over the reins on July 1. He will replace outgoing boss Ante Milicic, who has made the decision to step down after two years in charge for family reasons.
The role will mark Yorke's first senior coaching position, meaning he will be desperate to make a strong impression once he officially starts work in less than two months' time. The former Trinidad and Tobago international is no stranger to Australian football, playing for Sydney FC during the 2005/06 season.
