Phil Neville: 'I want to remain at Manchester United for life'

Phil Neville has revealed that he wants to remain a part of Manchester United's backroom staff.

The 37-year-old, who was brought into a coaching role at the club by former manager David Moyes, currently remains unsure where his future lies.

Louis van Gaal is widely expected to be named as the Red Devils new manager, and Neville says that he would love to be a part of the Dutchman's plans.

"I don't know what's around the corner for me in terms of my own personal job," the former United defender is quoted as saying by ESPN. "The season as a whole has just not been good enough.

"We've got to make sure next season, whoever is in charge and whoever is coaching, that we get back challenging for league titles. I want to be part of United's future, I'm a Manchester United person, I love the club.

"Results aside, it's been an incredible learning experience at a club that I love. I want to be here for the rest of my life, being involved with United. So that's my hope."

United stated yesterday that no announcement on a new manager will be made until next week.
