Matteo Darmian has a striking resemblance to Gary Neville according to the former Manchester United star.

Ex-Red Devils captain Neville posted a rather humorous Tweet on Sunday suggesting that perhaps the Italian right-back is his reincarnation.

Darmian, 25, joined United from Torino for £12.7 million a little over a week ago and is already drawing comparisons with Neville who won eight Premier League titles over two decades at Old Trafford.
