He said: “I am excited to join the Dragons, and to meet the entrepreneurs brave enough to face us in the Den. I hope my personal journey shows that you can take the experiences you’ve had in one part of your career and use them to do something entirely different and make it a success.”

As Gary prepares to share his personal experience on the BBC programme, it raises the question how much the football star is worth in comparison to the other Dragons - PeopleWorld takes a look.

Gary Neville is reportedly ‘relentless’ in business as much in life meaning he has millions stashed in the bank as he looks for the new TV venture.

The footballer was the longest serving Manchester United player behind Ryan Giggs after appearing for the team from 1991 to 2011, before turning his hand to coaching and managing teams such as Valencia and England’s national team as well as punditing for Sky Sports.

Gary’s seven figure bank balance has also been supported by his 10% ownership of Salford City as well as his out of football business ventures including a higher education institution in Manchester.

However, compared to Emma Grede’s net worth of £282 million, Peter Jones’ £1 billion fortune and Touker Suleyman’s £200 million net worth, Gary Neville is the lowest ranking dragon of season 21 in terms of wealth.

Behind Deborah Meaden’s £50 million, Steven Bartlett’s £68 million and Sara Davies £38 million, Gary Neville is reportedly worth around £19.6 million.
