Gary Neville "wasn't disappointed" that Manchester United missed out on Cody Gakpo as he believed the forward was too similar to their current personnel.
The Dutch star will move to the Premier League having opted to join Liverpool from PSV. The Reds have paid £44m to secure his services after his impressive performances in the Eredivisie and then at the World Cup. United had been interested in Gakpo in the summer, but will now have to look elsewhere.
Erik ten Hag is hoping to bring in a striker to bolster his ranks - and that desire has only increased following the sudden departure of Cristiano Ronaldo. Gakpo was a player on his radar, but Neville felt the 23-year-old didn't offer anything they don't already have.
