Gary Neville unlikely to spend on Valencia squad in January

Valencia manager Gary Neville suggests that he will not be dipping into the transfer market in January.

Gary Neville has suggested that he is reluctant to spend on improving his Valencia squad when the transfer window re-opens next month.

The 40-year-old, who took over at the Mestalla earlier this month, insisted that he is focused on his current players and criticised the "obsession" of teams constantly making additions.

"Obviously in football you always have to be adaptable. You always have to be ready for anything. We get injuries, situations that develop," Neville told Sky Sports News. "But my point of view, my focus is on the players that are here and getting the players that are injured back. Because I think when they do come back we have two players for every position.

"I have this big thing in football, this is not just something in the past week; we've become obsessed with who we're going to sign, who we would like to sign, who we do not have.

"It's something that I do not like. I don't like it about modern football at all. Forget Valencia, this could be the Premier League, French league, Bundesliga, La Liga. Of course new signings excite, but they can also cause you problems. It's not always easy."

Neville will attempt to get his first league win in charge of Los Che, who sit 10th in La Liga, when they welcome Getafe on Saturday afternoon.
