The father of former England footballers Gary and Phil Neville has been reportedly charged with sexually assaulting a woman.

The married Neville Neville, 63, had appeared in court after he was accused of a sex attack on a 46-year-old woman in Greater Manchester on March 23, the Daily Express reports.

However, Neville's solicitor said that the former cricketer has completely denied the allegations.

According to the report, Neville has a daughter along with his footballer sons, both of whom had achieved fame with Manchester United and England, adding that Neville's netball-playing daughter Tracey is Phil's twin.

Phil was Everton captain and Gary is now an England coach and TV pundit, while Neville's wife Jill is the general manager of the Bury Football Club at Greater Manchester, the report added.
