Manager Ryan Giggs will not be in charge of Wales for the Nations League game against the Republic of Ireland, while the 46-year-old will also be absent from the bench for games against Finland and the United States.

In a statement, the Welsh Federation said they and Giggs have “mutually agreed that they will not participate in the next international camp” and added that their immediate priority is to “prepare the team” for all three games.

Earlier today, Giggs denied “all assault allegations” from his girlfriend Kate Greville.

It comes after he was arrested following reports of a disturbance at his home on Sunday.

Robert Page will take over the term, with the support of Albert Stuivenberg.

Wales says Page has the support of Giggs to take over.

Ireland faces Wales on November 15 in Cardiff.

The former Manchester United star is cooperating with police, according to a statement issued by his representative.

“Mr. Giggs denies all the assault charges made against him,” it read.

“He is cooperating with the police and will continue to assist them with their ongoing investigations.”

The FAW canceled a press conference scheduled for Tuesday and will now name its team for Thursday’s games.

Giggs was appointed Wales coach in January 2018 after a stellar playing career.

He won 13 Premier League titles, two Champions League, four FA Cups and three League Cups with the Red Devils, and was capped 64 times for Wales.

He is also a co-owner of League Two’s Salford City.
