Newcastle Jets sell out of Emile Heskey shirts

Newcastle Jets have sold out of shirts bearing the name and number of new striker Emile Heskey.

The 34-year-old former England international joined the Australian club last week after being released by Aston Villa over the summer.

The Jets have now ordered a further 5,000 shirts due to an overwhelming demand from fans.

Heskey is one of only 23 players to have scored over 100 goals in the Premier League.
