Jose Mourinho refused to give Ryan Giggs a job at Man United because he slept with his brother’s wife

ONow that Jose Mourinho has left Man United, the skeletons are coming out the closet.

Jose Mourinho & Ryan Giggs

An incredible story has been revealed by Paul Hirst in the Times regarding Ryan Giggs.

Prior to Mourinho’s appointment, Giggs was in temporary charge at Old Trafford.

However when the Special One took over, Giggs was shoved out the door.

According to the Times, Mourinho didn’t want Giggs at Old Trafford because of his activities away from football:

Mourinho’s mistrust of the class of ’92 stretches back to when he took the job.

(Ed) Woodward was keen to keep Ryan Giggs on, but Mourinho vetoed the idea because he did not think the Welshman was a man he could trust because of his extra-marital affair with his brother’s wife.

It’s worth noting that Rui Faria was appointed as Mourinho’s number two.

Faria previously worked alongside Mourinho at Chelsea.

Graeme Souness on Ryan Giggs
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has today been appointed as the new Man United interim manager.

Solskjaer will remain in charge at Old Trafford until the end of the season.

However it’s worth noting that Graeme Souness advocated for Giggs to get the job on Tuesday on Sky Sports.

Souness picked Giggs because “he’s steeped in Man United history”.

If not Giggs, Souness wanted Roy Keane to get the job instead.
