England manager Phil Neville has said his departure next summer is not ‘the finish I want’.

Neville will leave the role after a spate of bad results following the conclusion of the World Cup last year and it is still unclear if he will still lead Team GB to the Olympics next summer.

“It's obviously not going to be the finish that I want,” he told BBC 5 Live.

"But the next 12 months will set the foundations for the next three years. Obviously with the new manager coming in, hopefully we can build a new team with fresh objectives and look forward to the Euros, Olympics and the World Cup.

It has also been reported his replacement will be announced this week and with his reign coming to an end he has reflected on his tenure.

"Over the last three years, with the performances of the team, building into the World Cup and what we achieved at the World Cup, meant we have really good foundations.

"They have probably faltered a little bit and been chipped away at a little bit over the last six months because of the performances.

"But with the young players that we have introduced - who are really exciting - they will have the opportunity now to break through with the experienced players and the next three years can be equally as successful as the last five to 10 years of what the women's team has had."
