Mark Bosnich backs Dwight Yorke to take Aberdeen job after the Man United legend's abrupt exit from Macarthur FC... and he believes former teammate can WIN European silverware with the club: 'The aim is to go one better than Sir Alex Ferguson'

Mark Bosnich has championed his great mate Dwight Yorke for the managerial vacancy at Aberdeen, with the former Manchester United striker eyeing up his next move after leaving Australia.

Yorke, 51, made an abrupt exit from Macarthur FC after overseeing just 13 games with the A-League club. He won the Australia Cup during his stint with the Sydney-based side.

Reports suggest that Yorke was less than impressed with the standard of football Down Under - which he compared to 'pub' level - and he has since thrown his hat in the ring to take over at Aberdeen following Jim Goodwin's exit.
