Wales coach Ryan Giggs denied the assault allegations on Tuesday after British media reported that he had been arrested following a disturbance at his home.
“Mr. Giggs denies all allegations of assault made against him,” said representatives for the 46-year-old.
“He is cooperating with the police and will continue to assist them with their ongoing investigations.”
The Sun reported that police were called to the home of the former Manchester United winger on Sunday night after receiving reports of a riot.
The newspaper quoted Greater Manchester Police as saying: “Police were called at 10.05pm Sunday to report a disturbance. A woman in her 30s suffered minor injuries but did not require any treatment.
“A 46-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of battery under section 47 and common battery under section 39.”
He was released on bail pending investigations, the newspaper said.
The Football Association of Wales (FAW) took note of the allegations against Giggs.
“The FAW is aware of an alleged incident involving men’s national team manager Ryan Giggs,” he said in a statement.
“The FAW will not comment further at this time.”
Wales were due to name their team on Tuesday for the November games against the United States, Ireland and Finland, but have postponed it, according to reports.
