Former English Premier League midfielder Dwight Yorke says he's interested in the Sydney FC coaching job.
Yorke, who played for Sydney in 2005-06 when it won the inaugural A-League, told The Sunday Telegraph that ''I've been there as a player and know what success is all about in Sydney ... I'm absolutely interested.''
The 40-year-old Yorke played 232 matches for Aston Villa and 95 for Manchester United before shifting to Blackburn, Birmingham City and Sunderland. He has also played 72 internationals for Trinidad and Tobago, scoring 19 goals.
Yorke will soon begin a role as assistant coach with Manchester United's reserve team. Sydney coach Vitezslav Lavicka will leave the team at the end of the A-League season.
