Ryan Giggs is keen to move into management when his playing days are over, and has set his sights high by stating he would like to manage either Manchester United or Wales.

The 36-year-old has already taken his coaching badges as he looks to be the latest United star to join a list of former Red Devils, such as Mark Hughes and Steve Bruce, who have gone into management.

The Welshman maintains that football is too important a part of his life to just give up when he hangs up his boots.

"My aim would be to manage either Manchester United or Wales," Giggs told the News of the World.

"I don't think I'll know whether I'll cope with the aggravation until I've finished playing and say 'what do I do now?'

"Football is such a massive part of my life and to just stop in your late 30s and do nothing is tough. Even though there is so much stress involved, I think a lot of players become managers and really enjoy it. I think Roy Keane really enjoys it."
