Playing career

Sterrey played 87 times in the National Soccer League (NSL), turning out for Sydney Croatia in their first NSL season in 1984. In 1985, Sterrey moved to Marconi on a A$4,000 transfer. He played two seasons for the Stallions, making 44 appearances. Sterrey returned to the NSL in 1989 playing for Blacktown City. [8] [9]

Coaching career

Taking charge of the Fiji national selection in 2004 on a two-year contract with the aim of improving the team and securing an A-League job, Sterrey has stated that Fijian football has gone in a downwards trajectory, disliking the use of foreign players and advising the use of young, homegrown talents instead. [10] [11] [12] His first win as coach would be a 1–0 victory over India on 17 August 2005. [13] By 2006, the Australian was replaced by Uruguayan Juan Carlos Buzzetti [14] which would be his only coaching appointment abroad.
