The announcement was made by the A-League team, who are based at Gosford, north of Sydney, at their end-of-season dinner on Friday evening.

"CCMFC owner Mike Charlesworth announces that Harry Redknapp will join the Mariners as a consultant," the club tweeted.

"Harry Redknapp will visit CCMFC during the @ALeague 16/17 season. Welcome 'Arry."

Redknapp, who has also coached West Ham and Southampton, will also help to "connect the Yellow & Navy with his ties abroad", the club added on their website.

His last role in club management was at Queens Park Rangers, but he left Loftus Road in February 2015 citing his need to have knee replacement surgery.

Redknapp was in Australia last month as part of a two-game spell in charge of the Jordan national team, who the Socceroos beat 5-1 in Sydney.
