5 things you (probably) didn’t know about Manchester United legend Ryan Giggs

There is a portrait of Giggs in the National Library of Wales

Artist Peter Edwards produced a portrait of Giggs back in 1998, when the Welshman was only 24 years of age.

And, in 2008, the National Library of Wales paid £10,000 for the portrait to be hung in their headquarters in Aberystwyth.

Giggs’ portraits became only the second of a sportsman in the National Library, following rugby international Barry John, but more have followed since in the form of Joe Calzaghe and Shane Williams.
