Ryan Giggs has admitted that he is ready to further his coaching career outside Manchester United.
The Welshman has been at Old Trafford since he made his debut in 1991 and holds the club’s record appearance (963 matches).
He was appointed as caretaker coach after David Moyes’ appointment at the end of last season, but is now assistant coach to Louis Van Gaal, after retiring from playing.
“I’ve been at the club for so long that I’m familiar with the club but if I want to further my coaching career or managing career and if it’s not at Manchester United then so be it – but I’ll just have to wait and see,” Giggs told Sky Sports.
Giggs also insisted he was not looking forward to take over from Van Gaal, but was learning enough to take a job wherever it may be.
“I’m learning all the time,” he told talkSPORT. “The more I learn the better prepared I am for whatever I do, wherever that may be.
“Taking over at Manchester United is not something I’m thinking of though. I loved the experience last season, it was the best ever.
“You can do all the coaching badges and leadership stuff but actually being there for three weeks was invaluable. I’m serving my apprenticeship again.”
