Former Trinidad & Tobago international Jlloyd Samuel spent 12 years in the Premier League playing for the likes of Aston Villa and Bolton Wanderers before finishing his league career in Iran.

Samuel has however resurfaced as BBC Sport reports that the 36-year-old has become the player-manager of Egerton FC in the 12th tier of English football.

He plays and manages the Chesire League One side with former Ajax midfielder Dean Gorre as well as American businessman Jim Cherneski.

The former Bolton man is trying to use his years of contacts to attract other ex Premier League stars, having already brought in former West Bromwich Albion striker Nathan Ellington last month.
