Inter Miami's former head coach Phil Neville lands new job just days after being sacked

Phil Neville has sealed a return to football just two days after he was sacked by Inter Miami, with the Manchester United and Everton legend joining the Canadian national team as part of John Herdman's coaching staff.

The 46-year-old was sacked by long-time friend and Inter Miami owner, David Beckham, following a dismal start to the MLS season, which saw the Sunshine State-based team win just five games from 16, leaving them bottom of the Eastern Conference. Neville's dismissal also came following intense pressure from Inter Miami fans for the Englishman to lose his job, with his son, Harvey, even being booed following a late substitute appearance after a 1-0 home loss to the New York Red Bulls.

But the former England women's boss is wasting little to no time with jumping back into football, accepting an offer to work with Herdman, joining Canada's coaching staff alongside the likes of former Millwall ace Richard Shaw. Neville will help Herdman and Canada with their upcoming Concacaf Nations League Finals.
