Phil Neville admits that he will go into coaching when he hangs up his boots but believes that his brother Gary is good enough for management now.

Everton captain Phil Neville is confident that his brother Gary will be successful at management level.

The former Manchester United skipper is currently working alongside Roy Hodgson with the England camp at the European Championships in Poland and Ukraine.

"Gary will be a fantastic coach and I'm sure one day he will be a fantastic manager," Neville told the FA.com. "He's got that aura about him and the knowledge, and I think he'll have the respect of the players."

The Toffees defender is also considering his future career when he retires from playing and believes that he could also be destined for a coaching role.

"When you get to the age of 30 you think to yourself, 'What am I doing to do when I finish? Coaching is something I've always enjoyed. I did my UEFA B Licence and loved it, I got the bug. I set my stall out that over the next five years I would plan and prepare to become a coach."

The 35-year-old has already had experience coaching the England Under-21s during the Euro 2013 qualifier against Belgium in February.
