| Gary Neville's first game in charge will be a Champions League clash with Lyon |
DIDI HAMANN believes Gary Neville is taking a 'huge chance' by becoming the manager of Valencia.
The Manchester United hero has joined brother Phil at the club, replacing former boss Nuno who was sacked last month.
His first game will be next wednesday's Champions League game against Lyon, and he admitted that he is 'proud' and 'excited' to embark on his managerial career.
However, Liverpool legend Hamaan fears the former England coach may not be ready for the step up to management, calling it a 'huge chance'.
"I'm very surprised and I'm not sure it's the right move," he said.

"He's in a very good position. He's doing his Monday Night Football on Sky, which he does very well, and he's assistant manager to Roy Hodgson.
"Going to a foreign country as your first job - and I know his brother is there and will have done some homework having been there for a few months - but it's a huge, huge task.

"To go abroad, not speaking the language and not knowing the league is a huge task.
"I don't really understand why he's done it because he would have got a big job in England in six or 12 months' time. I think he's taking a big, big chance."
