On an appearance on The Daily Ketchup Podcast, the Manchester United legend didn't hesitate when naming the best manager in the world as he selected Klopp.
He also praised Guardiola, but he doubled down on his Klopp claim as he revealed that he would bring him in at Old Trafford if he had the chance.
Asked who he thought was the best manager in the world, Neville replied: "I’d say Jurgen Klopp.
"Jurgen Klopp works with a budget that is far less than Pep Guardiola’s. Pep Guardiola is a genius and he’ll be one of the ones that’ll be remembered forever more.
"But Jurgen Klopp for me is an amazing manager. If you said to me which manager would you bring into Manchester United tomorrow, it’d be Jurgen Klopp. But [Liverpool] might never let him leave!"
Erik ten Hag failed to get a mention as Man United endure a difficult start to the season.
The Red Devils lie in sixth place in the table, having suffered five league defeats.
And they are out of the Carabao Cup and their chances of qualifying for the next round of the Champions League looks bleak.
As for Klopp, he's been at Liverpool since 2015 and has guided his side to Premier League and Champions League glory during his legendary spell at Anfield.
Who do you think is the best manager in the world right now? Let us know.
