Neville denies quit rumours

Gary Neville has rejected speculation that his long standing ankle injury may force the Man Utd skipper to retire from the game early. Neville is nearing a return from injury.

He told United Review: "The fact I've been out for so long brings about speculation regarding whether or not I'll make it back. I understand that.

"Ironically my ankle has been okay for the last couple of months, I've just picked up little knocks here and there that have lasted a couple of weeks or so.

"They can really set you back when you've been out for so long.

"I'm training again and I am focused on getting fit. I'm not going to put a timescale on it or name a game when I'll be back.

"Once I get fit and I'm doing the best I can to get to that point, I've no doubts I'll be okay."
