Sir Alex Ferguson has confirmed Gary Neville will miss the next
10 days of Manchester United's pre-season programme after suffering
a groin injury in training on Thursday.
Neville has flown back to England for treatment and has been
ruled out of the remainder of United's Far East tour, the Audi Cup
in Munich next week, when United will place two games, the first
against Boca Juniors on Wednesday and, in all probability, the Old
Trafford friendly with Valencia on August 5.
"Gary Neville tweaked his groin yesterday in training," said
Ferguson following his side's 3-2 win over FC Seoul.
"He will probably be ready in about 10 days.
"It would have been silly to keep him here if he was not going
to play so we sent him home this morning."
