WALES HAVE 'ALL BASES COVERED' IN GIGGS CASE


19/04/21


Football Association of Wales president Kieron O'Connor says the governing body has all bases covered if Ryan Giggs cannot take charge of the national team at Euro 2020 this summer.

Ryan Giggs missed the last two camps in November and March after being arrested on suspicion of assault, an allegation which he denies, and he has had his bail extended until May 1.

Robert Page has been a successful caretaker manager in Giggs' absence, winning four of his six games in charge with the only defeat coming against the world's top-ranked side Belgium.

But former Wales captain Ashley Williams has described the situation as a "mess" and hopes for a swift resolution to the matter, with the Dragons' Euro 2020 opener just two months away on June 12.

"The situation is quite clear - Ryan is bailed until May 1," O'Connor said. "The CPS (Crown Prosecution Service) has to make a decision on May 1 and we have a Plan A, B, C, D, E, F and G for all eventualities.

"We will make the decision on May 1 once we know what the situation is with Ryan."
