Neville out for three months with injury
Gary Neville will miss the final two matches of Manchester United’s Premiership campaign and England’s Euro 2004 qualifier against Slovakia next month because of injury.
The United defender is facing surgery after suffering further “discomfort” from the foot injury which wrecked his chances of appearing in the World Cup finals.
The 28-year-old, who has not started a league game for United since the 4-0 win over Liverpool at the beginning of April, will undergo surgery to remove a screw originally inserted into his foot during an operation last summer and will be out for between two and three months.
“Gary will undergo surgery today after experiencing discomfort in his left foot,” read a United statement this afternoon. “He will be back with Manchester United for pre-season training.”
