Jose Mourinho to let Manchester United legend Ryan Giggs shadow training sessions

Jose Mourinho has offered to help former Manchester United winger Ryan Giggs in the early days of his foray into management with Wales, according to reports.
The 44-year-old took his first job since leaving Old Trafford, where he was assistant to Mourinho’s predecessor Louis van Gaal, when he accepted the Wales job back in January.
And now, despite a somewhat fraught relationship with Mourinho due to comments made about United last season, The Sun claim he will be allowed to visit United’s Carrington training base.

Mourinho has not only invited Giggs to observe training, but will also have a one-on-one chat with the Welshman over becoming a manager and tactics in general.
There is still a lot of respect and admiration for Giggs at United, and the club are happy to help him in any way possible as he looks to make his mark in management.

Giggs has previously criticised United’s play under Mourinho, which the Portuguese reacted angrily to, but he has buried the hatchet and is looking forward to watching Giggs’ career unfold.
Speaking after he left United in 2016 along with Van Gaal, Giggs said: ‘There was no offer from Jose Mourinho. No offer. It was my choice to go.

‘As soon as Louis was going I had made my decision to go. I had done two years and I wanted to do three years under Louis. It didn’t happen.
‘That was my plan to do my three years and see what happened after that. Unfortunately, that was cut short. It happens. That’s football. But I didn’t really feel I could go on at the club in any other capacity apart from manager.’
