New Valencia coach Gary Neville: Can someone teach me Spanish?

New Valencia coach Gary Neville admits he doesn't speak Spanish.

The Manchester United legend was unveiled as new Los Che coach this afternoon to the local media.

“If anyone is willing to come down to Paterna at six in the morning to teach me Spanish, let me know!" he joked.

Neville also said: “I'm incredibly excited to be here. I understand and respect the huge responsibilities that I have been given and which I have accepted.

“I understand after playing against Valencia at this very stadium, many years ago now, the passion and the intimidation of the fans; and I want to try and harness that and recreate that for Valencia in the coming months."

Meanwhile, along with brother Phil Neville, U19 coach Miguel Angel Angulo, the former Valencia striker, will join the senior staff.
