Manchester United legend David Beckham believes he knows who the next manager at Old Trafford will be when Louis van Gaal leaves.

Mata Insists Man Utd Fans Will Back De Gea

The ex-England captain thinks United’s most capped player, Ryan Giggs, will get the job and could return the club to its former glory.

Van Gaal has a contract with the Red Devils until 2017 and Beckham has backed his former teammate to be the perfect replacement.

"To be a player who has represented one club through his career, that doesn't happen anymore," he told the Mirror.

"At some point, he will hopefully become United manager in the future."

Giggs was in charge for four games at the end of the 2013/14 season after David Moyes was sacked, and is now one of Louis van Gaal’s assistant managers.
