Phil Neville is a former Premier League footballer who played for both Manchester United and Everton. Since retiring from football, he has had a successful coaching/management career with both English and American teams.

Neville went vegetarian in 2014, inspired by his wife Julie. After two weeks, he already started “to feel healthier and leaner”.1 Webber, J.

It’s not clear if he’s fully made the change to veganism, but he has posted about plant-based foods on Instagram and seems to definitely be giving it a try!
