The report continues, “Neville was presented with a Hall of Fame medallion by United legend Bryan Robson at Old Trafford ahead of the Red Devils’ clash against Brighton to mark the moment.”

Speaking on Sky Sports about the event Neville commented, “it’s a very nice moment and made more special by the fact my hero growing up Bryan Robson, who was the epitome of everything I wanted to be as a kid, presented it to me.”

He continued, “and the fact that the 24 previous winners have voted for it, but yeah I played with some incredible footballers under an amazing manager out there at Old Trafford in front of these fans. So my job was made a lot easier every week by the quality that surrounded me.”

Neville is the ninth representative of the club to be voted into the illustrious club, joining Eric Cantona, Roy Keane, David Beckham, Wayne Rooney, Paul Scholes, Rio Ferdinand, Andy Cole and Sir Alex Ferguson.
