Manchester United legend Gary Neville says Manchester City could rue not signing Harry Maguire.

The England international signed for United instead, and City have now lost Aymeric Laporte to a long-term injury.

The former Red Devils defender told Sky Sports: "I said a few weeks ago that I was struggling to understand why City didn't follow through on Harry Maguire with Vincent Kompany leaving the club.

"I thought Kompany won them the league in the last 10 matches of last season when he played in all those games. Forget the Leicester moment which was just spectacular, I thought his leadership held them together at a time when Liverpool were applying pressure like you wouldn't believe.

"In terms of that leader-type figure, I think Laporte has got that."
