Football pundit and former Manchester United and England right-back Gary Neville is set to join the cast of Dragons’ Den as a guest Dragon for the 2024 series. The 48-year-old business mogul has a portfolio that spans property, hospitality, education, media and sport. He will join regular Dragons Peter Jones, Deborah Meaden, Touker Suleyman, Sara Davies and Steven Bartlett for episodes of series 21.
