'Swansea City's 'ambitions didn't really match mine'- Ryan Giggs

Former Manchester United player and assistant manager, Ryan Giggs has opened up why he didn't take up the Swansea job. 

Speaking to ITV Sport, Giggs said he did not pursue the manager position because the Welsh clubs' "ambitions didn't really match mine."

Giggs confirmed that he met with Swansea before Francisco Guidolin was sacked last week.

"There I was enjoying my year out, having done a bit of travelling and a bit of broadcasting, and I got the call from Swansea," Giggs said.

"So I met with them a couple of times.

"But in the end, there were just mixed messages, really, from the football side and the ownership side of the club, and I just felt that their ambitions didn't really match mine. So it didn't quite work out."

Swansea later appointed former United States coach Bob Bradley on Tuesday last week
