Newcastle Offers Gary Neville Manager Interview Alongside Two Other Clubs
Gary Neville has claimed that he was contacted by Newcastle regarding their managerial position. He disclosed this information during an episode of the Stick to Football podcast, explaining his decision to take the Valencia job due to loyalty to the owner. Neville revealed that he had been approached by Middlesbrough, Newcastle, and Derby for interviews in the previous three years, while he was working at Sky, but he declined all the offers as they didn’t align with his career goals. During Neville’s tenure at Valencia, the team only managed to win three out of 16 league games and suffered a humiliating 7-0 defeat in the Copa del Rey against Barcelona.
Subsequently, he was dismissed from his position when the club was placed 14th in La Liga, with just six points above the relegation zone.
