SuperSport has announced that global football icon Ryan Giggs will head up a stellar cast of analysts and experts for the broadcaster s coverage of the 2014 FIFA World Cup.
The Manchester United legend will be a studio analyst for the World of Champions, offering his insight during build-ups, halftime and post-game, starting in June.
Recently retired Giggs is the most decorated player in English football history and is fresh off his recent assignment as interim manager of Manchester United.
His staggering football CV includes 34 career trophies and 963 appearances for Manchester United dating back to his debut in March 1991. He is the most decorated player the Premier League has produced.
We have contracted a world class player for a world class event, says Alvin Naicker, Head of Production of SuperSport. Ryan Giggs represents the very best of football. He is in a class of his own. Ryan is a massively popular figure on the continent and we expect his expert views will be much anticipated and enjoyed during this coming World Cup.
