A big part of his success has been Solskjaer’s success in the transfer market, with quality signings added in every window that have performed well for the Red Devils.

One of those signings last summer was Wales international Daniel James, which Giggs has revealed he had a big say in.

Giggs said:  “Ole asked me about him

“Ole was the one that came to me, it wasn’t the other way [around].

“It was last season. He nearly went to Leeds before that so Ole knew about him and the club had been watching him. ‘It was a no-brainer. He’s like that [on an upward trajectory] in his career. As a lad he’s a great lad as well, he wants to get better and he’s someone that wants to learn. He’s someone I thought would be suited to this place.”
