Everton midfielder Phil Neville has said that he is happy that David Moyes's exit from the club will take the attention away from him when he moves on at the end of the campaign.

The former Blues captain will be looking for a new club in the summer when his contract expires at Goodison Park.

However, his final attendance at the Goodison coincides with Moyes's who will be joining Manchester United at the end of the season, and Neville admits that he will be pleased to have the spotlight deflected away from him.

"I am actually a little bit glad [the focus will be on Moyes] in a way," the Liverpool Echo quotes him as saying.

"Better players than me have left this club and achieved more at this club. I'm just looking forward to getting my feet back on the turf [at Goodison Park] and clapping the fans."

Neville has made 303 appearances for the Blues since signing from United in 2005.
