Ryan Giggs has denied charges brought against him by two women who claim he assaulted them. The charges include belittling, humiliation, harassment, degradation and abuse.
Giggs, the manager of Wales’ national football team, was charged with common assault and coercive and controlling behaviour.
He denied that he engaged in violent behaviour towards any woman.
Giggs made his first appearance at the Manchester Magistrate’s Court where the charges were read out for the jury.
He pleaded not guilty to all three charges and said he looked forward to clearing his name.
Giggs enjoyed a stellar career, winning 13 Premier League titles with Manchester United as well as winning the Champions League on two occasions.
The winger also holds the record for the most assists in the Premier League.
He became the manager of the Wales international team in January of 2019 but has been suspended from the team due to the ongoing court case against him.
He is expected to make his second court appearance on 26 May.
