Neville against foreign investors

Everton defender Phil Neville has revealed that he is against the trend of foreign investors buying Premiership sides; as he feels they only destabilise the club. Neville also believes that chairman Phil Kenwright is doing a wonderful job at the Toffees.

"The chairman's a massive Everton fan, and there's no way that he'll let some Russian or American come in and destabilise our club," he told Sky Sports News.

"You've seen it with the Americans at Liverpool and with other Russian owners that they're a rule to their own.

"It does cause embarrassment for the club and hopefully that won't happen at Everton. I'm sure that as long as Bill Kenwright is in charge it won't happen because he's got the best interests of the club at heart.

"It's the people's club, and yes, it would be great to have that kind of finance, but sometimes you've got to keep the principles of the club intact as well."
