Yorke is currently completing his FIFA "B" coaching licence, and while he has already confirmed that Manchester United and other Premier League clubs will assist him to enhance his coaching skills, he's also open to returning to the A-League.
"Dwight's made no secret that he loves it here in Australia," said a source close to the star. "If he can find a team in the A-League that is the right fit, both playing and coaching-wise, there's every chance he'll be in Australia for the new season."
