Gary Neville has claimed he is not concerned by Liverpool beating Manchester United to the signing of Cody Gakpo, insisting he is not the player his former club require.
Gakpo was linked with a move to Old Trafford during the summer transfer window and links resurfaced in recent weeks ahead of January, suggesting Erik ten Hag could have played a key role in convincing the 23-year-old to sign for the Red Devils.
But reports emerged on Boxing Day that Liverpool had swooped in to secure the services of Gakpo, a deal that was officially announced on Wednesday evening for a fee in the region of £40million. A report later emerged suggesting Ten Hag had been left 'frustrated' after missing out on this opportunity in the market.
