Ryan Giggs
made his first television appearance since becoming Louis van Gaal's No
2 at Manchester United, but it wasn't quite the unveiling you might
have have imagined.
The
40-year-old has certainly been busy since ending the season as United's
interim boss and even interrupted his holiday in Dubai to link up with
Diego Maradona for a new football show.
Giggs
even hit the stage in full kit and boots as he joined Maradona and
Michel Salgado on The Victorious, which aims to find the next football
star in the UAE.

V for Victorious: The show's presenter Nathalie Mamo
Speaking
in a rather awkward interview after the show, Giggs said: 'I'm here in
Dubai on holiday but also to work on The Victorious programme.
'It's great to see the young players doing so well and being given a chance.
'I've really enjoyed it, it's been a really successful night.'
He
tweeted a snap of the famous faces along with the message: 'With Diego,
Ryan Giggs, Jehad and my friend Bakoor in The Victorious'
The
United veteran recently revealed his decision to retire from football
after 963 games for the club, during which time he won 13 Premier league
titles, four FA Cups, three League Cups and the Champions League twice.
Giggs will now be assistant to new United boss Van Gaal next season.
