Ryan Giggs was a truly unique footballer, Alex Ferguson said after his 29-year association with Manchester United came to an end.
Alex Ferguson suggested there will never be a career like Ryan Giggs' again after the one-club man confirmed he is leaving Manchester United after 29 years.
Giggs announced Saturday he is departing Old Trafford to pursue a managerial career, with the former Wales international failing to find a role in new manager Jose Mourinho's backroom team.
And Ferguson, who gave Giggs his debut in 1990 and was his manager for all 13 of his Premier League triumphs, says being able to play in the Premier League beyond his 40th birthday was "completely unheard of" and hailed his impact in the dressing room.
