Ex-Man Utd captain Neville: Giggs will be most successful Brit ever

Gary Neville believes that Ryan Giggs will never be surpassed as the most successful British footballer in history.

The Welshman is closing in on an unprecedented 13th league title with United and former captain Neville feels it is an achievement that will never be bettered by a player from Britain.

"Will we ever see his like again? No, no way," said Neville.

"Ryan Giggs will go down as the most successful British footballer of all time and I cannot see anyone ever overtaking him. He's on the brink of his 13th league title, after all.

"When we were younger, we often heard about Alan Hansen's amazing eight championships with Liverpool. But what we are witnessing at the moment is greatness before our very eyes.

"Ryan is unique, he has surpassed all records in terms of domestic titles and he has incredible desire, quality and spirit. He's just fantastic to watch."
