Manchester United legend Gary Neville has joined forces with former Premier League rivals for his next venture

Gary Neville has expanded his ever-growing business empire by launching a new show. The Overlap Daily will broadcast every weekday at 4pm on YouTube and Neville has decided to hire a few old foes to join him.

The opening show, launching Friday, October 9, will feature Neville alongside Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher and YouTube personality Mark Goldbridge.

Neville has also sought out another Liverpool hero, Steven Gerrard. He has also brought on board ex-Man City star Joe Hart, former Liverpool and Spurs midfielder Jamie Redknapp and ex-Man Utd winger Ashley Young.

Also to appear on the Overlap Daily are: Spurs legend Tim Sherwood, Sky Sports star Kelly Cates, Everton hero Duncan Ferguson, former Wales shot-stopper Mark Crossley, TV presenter Becky Ives and United icon Peter Schmeichel.

Gerrard, who has returned to punditry with TNT Sports this season, will make his regular presenting debut alongside sports broadcaster Ives on the Monday slot.

Overlap Daily seeks to deliver supporters a daily round-up of the latest football stories and discussion, with regular contributors offering exclusive analysis alongside the hosts' views and forecasts. It will also feature questions from supporters and a phone-in element.

After Monday's programme with Gerrard and Ives, Tuesday's will showcase Cates, Young and Hart. Wednesday's instalment will see former Spurs pair Redknapp and Sherwood take charge.

Thursday's programme will see Everton legend Ferguson and former Wales goalkeeper Crossley take charge of presenting responsibilities, while Carragher, Neville and Goldbridge will front the Friday edition.

Overlap Daily follows the remarkable success of Neville's existing podcast, The Overlap, which has racked up more than 38 million monthly views since launching in 2021. High-profile guests including David Beckham, Tyson Fury and Rory McIlroy have appeared on the show, establishing it as one of Britain's most listened-to podcasts.

> Neville, founder of the Overlap, said: "We have wanted to create a daily show for some time now. There was a moment in the last year where a manager was sacked and we didn't have a programme for seven days - at that point we recognised that we needed to go for it.

> "The quality and profile of our incredible host line-up speaks to our commitment to deliver the best insights and debate on the biggest football stories, and we'll now be doing this daily."

> Simon Pitts, Group CEO of Global and Co-Chair of The Overlap, added: "The Overlap has created one of the most powerful football brands in the game by putting brilliant talent and genuine fan conversation at the heart of everything it does.

> "Overlap Daily takes that ambition to the next level, creating a place for the stories and debates that matter, every day, with an incredible line-up of the best football voices in the business."
