Phil Neville has returned to Manchester United and is reunited with David Moyes as the Barclays Premier League champions’ new first team coach according to the Daily Mail
He was photographed arriving at Carrington early this morning, where he is expected to be announced as Moyes’ latest backroom appointment alongside four former Everton colleagues in Chris Woods, Steve Round, Robbie Cooke and Jimmy Lumsden.
Neville, 36, ended his 18-year playing career last month. But it was at Old Trafford where the former England international made his name after emerging with the much-celebrated class of ’92.
He made over 250 appearances for the Red Devils before spending eight years at Goodison Park under Moyes.
Neville, who was Everton’s captain from 2007, has been doing his coaching badges and holds the UEFA B License award and worked on the coaching staff for the England under-21s during their disappointing showing in the Euros in Israel this summer.
Sir Alex Ferguson handed Neville his Manchester United debut in 1995 in a 3-0 win over Manchester City. He went on to win six Premier League titles, three FA Cups and the Champions League before Moyes signed him at Everton in 2005 for £3.5million.
Moyes takes his first training session in charge of United today with Neville expected to join.
