Gary Neville has concluded that Manchester United cannot appoint Gareth Southgate as their next permanent manager as he belives the Red Devils could look to keep Ten Hag next season.

The Dutch manager's future at United has been plunged into uncertainty in recent months amid Man United's dismal form this season.
