COLCHESTER United are set to unveil Teddy Sheringham as their new player-coach at 2.30pm today.

The 41-year-old is a free agent after leaving West Ham United, and is set to join the Championship club as player-coach.

It's quite a coup for the Essex side who have suffered with a host of players leaving since the end of last season.
