Ryan Giggs has been charged with assaulting two women and controlling or coercive behavior at the end of last year.
“A man from Salford has been charged with three offenses after police were called to reports of a disturbance in the Worsley area in November 2020,” a Greater Manchester Police spokesperson reported.
“Ryan Giggs has been charged with causing actual bodily harm to a woman in her 30s and common assault of a woman in her 20s”
One of those women was his ex-girlfriend.
