Giggs pushed Elliot Anderson to join Man United over Man City

Ryan Giggs has revealed he tried to convince Elliot Anderson to join Manchester United before the World Cup. Speaking to FourFourTwo, Giggs described the effort as desperate, with Anderson eventually telling him to back off. The former United winger was pushing the youngster toward Old Trafford over Manchester City. Anderson has since made his way into senior football and is now a Scotland international. Giggs said the exchange shows how hard clubs work to land young talent early.
