Dwight Yorke Parts Ways With Trinidad and Tobago After Contract Talks Break Down

The TTFA says a post-qualification review led to proposed changes after which the parties mutually agreed to separate.

Overview

  • Trinidad and Tobago’s FA confirmed negotiations over revised terms and remuneration stalled following the failed 2026 World Cup qualifying campaign.
  • Multiple outlets report Yorke declined a proposed pay cut as part of the new deal, though the FA characterised the outcome as a mutual decision.
  • Yorke’s tenure began in November 2024 and lasted about 17 months, with four wins in 18 matches during his spell in charge.
  • Qualification hopes ended with a 1-1 draw against Jamaica that left the Soca Warriors third in their group.
  • The FA said the door remains open to future dialogue as it resets the men’s programme, and Yorke said he intended to continue but cited circumstances beyond his control.
