On that occasion, he coached North Village Rams between 2008 and 2013.
The 46 year old, who joined Manchester United when he first arrived in England in 1988, forged a successful career at their derby rivals Manchester City between 1998 and 2003, earning cult hero status.
He would go on to score over 100 league goals for City during a spell which saw the club fluctuate between the old Second Division, First Division and Premier League.
With a play on his first name, City fans coined the chant "Feed The Goat And He Will Score" in his honour. The phrase "Feed the Goat" also formed part of the title of his autobiography.
Goater was top scorer for City in four successive seasons from 1998-99 to 2001-02.
