The 49-year-old, who stood down as Wales boss before his trial last summer, is looking for a return to management after prosecutors said they would no longer be pursuing a case against him
Ryan Giggs is eager to return to football management as soon as possible after prosecutors dropped their domestic violence case against Britain’s most decorated footballer.
The 49-year-old learned on Tuesday morning that the Crown Prosecution Service will no longer pursue two charges of assault and a separate count of controlling and coercive behaviour.
Giggs, a 13-times Premier League and double Champions League winner at Manchester United, stepped aside as Wales boss before his initial trial last summer – which ended with the jury being unable to reach a verdict.
During that trial the court heard that the Wales role was his “dream job” but Giggs stood down as Wales boss a month before the trial began; having been placed on leave after his arrest in November 2020. He had said it was to ensure no distraction for the national side ahead of their first World Cup in more than half a century.
