Where is Robbie Elliott now?
One of the few players who played for both Newcastle United and Sunderland, Robbie Elliott hung up his boots in 2008 after a season playing for Hartlepool United.
Starting his career with the Magpies in 1991, he went onto make nearly 300 first-team appearances for five clubs with highlights including promotion to the top-tier with Bolton in 2001 and a second-placed finish in the Premier League with Newcastle in 1997.

Upon retiring from playing Elliott returned to Newcastle United to work as a fitness and conditioning coach but left after a year later due to the continuing turmoil within the club at the time.
He then moved to the United States where he worked for the US Soccer Federation as a team performance expert before joining sports giant Nike as a member of their sports performance research team.
Elliott then spent time working for US blender company Vejo Inc as part of their executive board before founding his own sports consultancy agency which he currently operates as the company’s CEO .
Away from football he set up the Robbie Elliott Foundation which has raised thousands of pounds for charities including the Sir Bobby Robson Foundation and Breakthrough Breast Cancer.
