He also racked up a  club-record 963 appearances before retiring in the summer of 2014  following a four-game spell as caretaker player-manager following David  Moyes' dismissal.He then became assistant manager to Louis van  Gaal, with the original plan having been for Giggs to potentially take  the manager's job at the end of the Dutchman's three-year contract in  2017.But Van Gaal's sacking in May following two underwhelming  seasons resulted in a change of plan from the Old Trafford hierarchy,  and Jose Mourinho's decision to hand Giggs a reduced role on his  new-look backroom staff led the 42-year-old to consider his options.And on Saturday the club announced in a statement that Giggs had decided  to call time on his glorious spell with United almost three decades on  from his arrival on a Youth Training Scheme deal on his 14th birthday.Upon  his exit, Giggs said in a statement: "After 29 seasons at Manchester  United as a player and assistant manager, I know winning is in the DNA  of this club - giving youth a chance, and playing attacking and exciting  football. It’s healthy to have high expectations, it’s right to expect  to win. Manchester United expects, deserves, nothing less. "This is why it is a huge decision for me to step away from the club  that has been my life since the age of 14. It has not been a decision  that I have made lightly. I'll take away so many special "However, the time feels right and, although I have no immediate plans to step into management, it is where I want to be. "I’ve been extremely fortunate in having two great managerial  mentors; first in Sir Alex, who I’ve spent the majority of my life  working with and learning from and who I believe will remain as  football’s greatest-ever manager and in more recent times, Louis van  Gaal, whose CV speaks for itself. The knowledge I have gleaned from them  has been invaluable. "I want to reiterate my thanks to the backroom staff and support  teams at Manchester United I’ve worked with over the years. The results  on the pitch are a reflection of the hard work off it. I would not have  achieved the success I have without the dedication, sacrifice and  commitment of these people in creating the best environment for the team  to succeed."I want to congratulate José Mourinho on his appointment as manager  of the world’s biggest club. There are only a handful of proven winners  at the very highest level and José is unquestionably one of them. I know  the fans will welcome him. "My final thank you is to the fans. I cannot begin to tell you how  much I will miss walking out at Old Trafford in front of you. It’s  extremely difficult to say goodbye after 29 years. I have loved every  minute both as a player and assistant manager. The support you have  always shown me has been phenomenal; thank you. "It’s time for a new chapter and a new challenge. I’m excited about  the future - I’ve had the best apprenticeship into management anyone  could ever ask for."  Speculation had mounted in recent times regarding Giggs' future due to  Mourinho's arrival at United, while his decision to join ITV's team of  pundits for the final 11 days of Euro 2016 in France increased talk he  was ready to look for a management job away from Old Trafford.</blockquote>
