Posted by Jasper Reed in A-League, Dwight Yorke, Melbourne Victory, Sydney FC | 21 May 2006
The A Leagues 2 biggest recruits for the inaugural season will be back for the second term, kicking off in August.
Dwight Yorke broke his silence 2 month to confirm he would be back to honour the second year of his contract with Sydney FC. Speaking from the T and T World Cup training camp in London, Yorke said he was looking forward to returning to Australia after this summers tournament. It's another boost for the champions, who this week also confirmed Terry Butcher as manager.
Meanwhile Melbourne Victory has also confirmed that Archie Thompson will return after the World Cup following a 6 month loan spell with Guus Hiddinks PSV. The striker was expected to come back, and will now play out the last 3 years of his contract, much to the delight of the Melbourne faithful.
