Neville expresses surprise over Man Utd’s latest signing

Man Utd were able to seal a deal for Sergio Reguilon from Tottenham before the summer transfer window closed, as the club’s former defender Gary Neville, expressed surprise over the move.

The Red Devils had to make the moved after some injury problems at the beginning of the season.

Man Utd players like Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia are on the sidelines and the Red Devils were linked with moves to sign Marc Cucurella from Chelsea as backup.

They, however, dropped their interest in signing Cucurella due to the loan fee and went on to agree with a loan deal for Reguilon.

Neville reacting to the move said he was surprised that Man United moved for the Tottenham left-back.

“I have to say I was a little bit surprised that we were going for Reguilon,” Neville told Sky Sports.

“Obviously, we’ve got the issue with Luke Shaw which means it is a stop-gap, it is a temporary measure. They’ve left themselves short in that position.”
