(Reuters) - Former defender and television pundit Gary Neville has said Manchester United should sack chief executive Ed Woodward as he has overseen a period of decline despite the Premier League club having one of the largest wage bills in the world.

United have not won a Premier League title since 2013 -- when former manager Alex Ferguson retired -- despite spending nearly one billion pounds ($1.30 billion) on incoming transfers without a director of football to identify potential recruits.
