Phil Neville won't have been many people's tip for the next member of Man United's Class of 92 to take a managerial role.

However, the youngest member of the club's golden generation has taken the leap into management, taking the hotseat at Valencia (on a temporary basis at first) following the resignation of Nuno Espirito Santo. He could lead the team out against Barcelona, if Valencia haven't appointed a permanent successor to Espirito Santo by the weekend. valencia Former team-mate Ryan Giggs briefly held the manager's position at Old Trafford on a temporary basis following the dismissal of David Moyes, and it appears that Neville will be given a similar role at the Spanish club. According to Marca, he is set to share caretaker duties with Salvador Voro Gonzalez. The 38-year-old took over as assistant manager at the start of the season, and will take the reins with the club sitting 9th in La Liga. https://twitter.com/valenciacf_en/status/671305793510207488
