TTFA Press Release

The Trinidad and Tobago Football Association (TTFA) advises that the contract of Men’s Senior National Team Head Coach, Dwight Yorke, has been terminated by mutual agreement on February 28th.

Following the conclusion of the recent FIFA World Cup qualification campaign in which T&T failed to advanced to the 2026 World Cup, the TTFA Executive Committee conducted a comprehensive review of the campaign and the overall direction of the Men’s Senior National Team programme, inclusive of its technical structure and financial framework.

Subsequent discussions were held between the TTFA and Mr. Yorke regarding the future of the role, including revised contractual terms and remuneration aligned to the next phase of the programme. After these discussions, both parties were unable to reach agreement on the proposed terms at this time, and it was mutually decided to part ways.

This decision reflects the outcome of those discussions at this juncture. The TTFA wishes to emphasise that the Association maintains a professional and respectful relationship with Mr. Yorke, and the door is not closed to future dialogue.

The TTFA thanks Mr. Yorke for his service and contribution to the Men’s Senior National Team and acknowledges his commitment during his tenure.

In the interim, the Association will, in due course, announce the appointment of a Head Coach to lead the team in preparation for the upcoming international friendly against Bolivia on March 15, as well as participation in the upcoming FIFA Series to be held in Uzbekistan.

The TTFA remains firmly committed to strengthening the Men’s Senior National Team programme as it transitions into its next phase and will continue to act in the best interests of Trinidad and Tobago football.

Further updates will be communicated in due course.
