As the Telegraph reports, during a speech given to fans of the club van Gaal heaps praise on Giggs before declaring the Welshman should be the next Red Devils boss.
The 63-year-old explained at a charity dinner last Thursday that the former midfielder was a great coach and should be the next man in charge at United.
Giggs had a brief spell as No.1 following David Moyes’ sacking at the end of last season, with a 3-1 victory over Hull City a particular highlight.
The 40-year-old was also among the contenders to succeed Moyes before van Gaal was given the job and it looks extremely likely one day the 13-time Premier League champion will emulate his great mentor Sir Alex Ferguson.
