Ex-Man United defender Phil Neville rules out taking Bury job - sources

Phil Neville has ruled himself out of the running for the vacant manager's job at League One outfit Bury, sources close to the former Manchester United defender have told ESPN FC.

Neville has been touted for the Bury job due to his close connections with the club, with his late father, Neville Neville, having worked as their commercial director and having a stand at Gigg Lane named after him, while his mother also currently works for the side.

Bury are searching for a new manager after sacking David Flitcroft earlier this month following a poor run of form.
