Former Manchester United and England legend Gary Neville has taken on a new role with NBC Sports, covering the Premier League in the USA. Known for his often divisive punditry on Sky Sports, Neville will now contribute to NBC’s studio coverage throughout the 2024/25 season.
NBC announced his arrival as a “special contributor,” starting with Manchester United’s opener against Fulham at Old Trafford. Neville will enhance their Sunday coverage in collaboration with Sky Sports. While many fans expressed excitement over Neville’s appointment, others were less enthusiastic. Supporters shared mixed reactions on social media, ranging from praise for the move to calls for other pundits.
However, NBC is confident in its choice, highlighting its record-breaking viewership figures from last season, with nearly 3 million tuning in for “Championship Sunday.” NBC’s studio team for the weekend includes Rebecca Lowe, Tim Howard, Robbie Earle, and Robbie Mustoe, with Neville playing a key role in their future broadcasts.
