Gary Neville and Roy Keane disagree over Christian Eriksen role for Manchester United

Eriksen, 30, was signed by Erik ten Hag on a free transfer after his short-term spell at Brentford came to an end. He bolsters the United squad along with fellow additions Tyrell Malacia and Lisandro Martinez, as Ten Hag continues to move for other targets such as Barcelona playmaker Frenkie de Jong.

Whether or not De Jong pitches up at Old Trafford could have an impact on how much game-time Eriksen is given, but the Dane generally operates in a more attacking position than the Barcelona man. However, it has been left up Neville to dispel concerns from Keane about how much Eriksen will add to the group.
