can't wait to be in the dugout. He revealed that he has received many offers to become manager but is not rushing into management. He was United's caretaker manager for four games in the 2014-2015 season replacing the sacked David Moyes.
He said, "I have [had offers] but little bits really," Giggs told Goal . "I didn't know that I was leaving United, maybe a month ago I did and it is a short window and most clubs have got their managers, more or less, and they want to work with them pre-season." "Unfortunately, managerial jobs can be very short, who knows what happens in the next four or five months."
I've not had any managerial offers, not at the moment. I've been just enjoying myself, did a bit of media work during the Euros and now have come here [India] to be in the Premier Futsal. "So, now I am relaxing and enjoying a bit of free time. "
He was assistant to Louis Van Gaal last season.
"It was an unbelievable experience even only for four games," he lamented.
"I had done all my coaching qualifications but there is nothing like it than sitting on the hot seat and it was two-and-half weeks but I learnt so much."
"You can do all your coaching badges but once you're in there, you're on your own. You're in your office, you've got to pick the teams, prepare training, watch the opposition. So many things going on."
"I know that experience is going to help me forever in my managerial career."
"Obviously, I want to be a manager. Ever since I left school, I've been at United, my work," he added. "So this is the first time in 25-26 years where I have gone into a pre-season not going to work.
"I am quite happy and relaxed. It is similar when I'd finish playing, there was a disappointment but also I was relieved for my body for what I had done for 25 years."
"There is a little bit of relief so I can step back and if the right offer comes, I will jump on it. I am not in any rush, but at the same time I don't want to leave it too long."
When asked about United transfers he didn't have an answer as to what is going on behind closed doors.
"I haven't got a clue. I know as much you do. I have got no inside information. He is a good player."
He is in India playing the Futsal tournament. He is United's record appearance holder.
