Veteran Trinidadian striker Dwight Yorke has been released from England Premiership club Sunderland, a move that could signal the end of his club days in England.



The northeast England club said the 37 year old Trinidad and Tobago captain would not be offered a new contract, ending another chapter in Yorke’s 19 year club career in Britain.



His current contract expired at the end of the just concluded season where Sunderland narrowly avoided relegation.
