Filed Under (Soccer, Trinidad) by pwalker on 14-07-2008

T&T star striker and former Sunderland midfielder Dwight Yorke has re-entered the football fray in an attempt to help the Trinidad and Tobago team qualify for the 2010 World Cup. The midfielder has been added to the T&T squad for the upcoming qualifier with Cuba next month. The 36 year old Yorke met recently with T&T Football Federation and FIFA vice president Jack Warner to offer his services who was only too happy to oblige.
