Phil Neville 'open to becoming Everton manager'

Phil Neville has admitted that becoming the new Everton manager would be a "really good" job to be offered.

The 36-year-old has been touted as a possible replacement to David Moyes, who left his post at Goodison Park to embark on a new challenge as Manchester United manager.

Neville, who left the Toffees at the end of the season, has claimed that he is yet to make a decision on his future, but has expressed a desire to move into management.

"It is flattering to be linked with the Everton job," Neville told The Express. "There is a structure in place where the new man who comes in will not have that much to do.

"I am at the end of my [playing] career and I am looking to get into coaching and management. It is just whatever direction the club want to take. It would be a really good job to get. But I also know there are players who have gone into jobs and failed."

Meanwhile, the former Manchester United player is reportedly being considered for a senior role at Stoke City following manager Tony Pulis's departure.
