Asprilla set to join Newcastle as youth coach

The 43-year-old has revealed he is poised to return to his former club in a coaching capacity and also hopes to bring more Colombian players to the Magpies in the future

Ex-Newcastle United striker Faustino Asprilla has revealed he is poised to return to his former club as a youth team coach.

Asprilla enjoyed a two-spell at the Magpies after joining from Parma in 1996 and has revealed he is set take up his new role in March.

The 43-year-old also confirmed he hopes to help the club pick up the best talent from his native Colombia.

He told Radio Antena 2: “Some teams in England are going after the Spaniards, so I want Newcastle to fix their eyes on Colombian talent.”

Newcastle are currently enjoying an excellent run of form which has seen them win four of their last five matches and seal a place in the last-16 of the Europa League.

 

Ooh de ja vu I'm sure I saw this a few weeks back. Must be imagining things.

Would be great to have him back at the club.

 

Colombian players, hmm? I'm expecting bids for Falcao and James Rodriguez immediately...

 

Believe it was mentioned at one of his talk in's that he'd like to come back in some capacity.

 

I hope so but how many kids in the Northeast have elastic legs?
