Ryan Giggs linked with another club as his search for manager’s job goes on

Give it Giggsy!

Ryan Giggs is the most talked about managerial candidate in British football – despite the fact he has never actually had a permanent job as a boss.

The former Manchester United star’s managerial CV consists of four matches as caretaker boss of United after David Moyes was sacked in 2014, and yet he is linked with every single job that becomes available.

He was touted as a replacement for Louis van Gaal when the Dutchman left Old Trafford in the summer, but that job went to Jose Mourinho.

He was then linked with the top job at Nottingham Forest, but he didn’t get that either.

Since then he has been mentioned in connection with Oldham, Southampton, Bolton, Swansea and Wigan.

And yet he remains on the market.

Now a new club is apparently considering taking him on, as the Mail reports MK Dons are keen to speak to the Welshman as they look for a replacement for Karl Robinson who was sacked last week after six years at the helm.

MK owner Pete Winkelman is reported to be keen on a big name to become manager in order to help boost the profile of the club.

So, will this finally be the break Giggsy’s been looking for?
