Valencia coach Gary Neville reveals that he is interested in "creating stability" at the club after being appointed.

Gary Neville has said that he wants to create "stability" at Valencia after being appointed as the side's new coach.

The former Manchester United and England defender takes over at the Mestalla until the end of the season, joining brother Phil Neville, who has been an assistant at the club since July.

At his introductory press conference, the 40-year-old told reporters: "The only way to approach any football job is to think of it as a permanent job even though we know it's only six months. We will appoint people from within, I'm not interested in bringing over an army of coaches. I'm interested in creating stability.

"My family will move over here permanently, my girls will finish school in Manchester in two weeks' time and will move to Valencia with my wife. When I was at Manchester United I wanted foreign players to show commitment to the city and immerse themselves in the culture. It's important that I also show that commitment even though for now it's just a six-month contract.

"I will take [Spanish] lessons every day. At the moment I have a slight problem in that I can't find a Spanish teacher willing to get up at 6am to give me lessons. I was at the training ground this morning and Phil's Spanish was fantastic in terms of communicating with the players."

Valencia host Barcelona on Saturday, although Neville has left his brother in caretaker charge for the match against the Spanish champions.
