Manchester United legend Ryan Giggs was reportedly rejected by Swansea City after interviewing for the manager's job.

Manchester United legend Ryan Giggs was reportedly rejected by Swansea City after interviewing for the manager's job.

The 42-year-old is looking for his first job in management after leaving United in the summer following three years as assistant boss to David Moyes and later Louis van Gaal.

The Welshman was believed to be a contender to replace Francesco Guidolin, but former USA boss Bob Bradley got the job after impressing in his interview.

According to The Mirror, Giggs failed to excite Swansea's American owners Jason Levien and Steve Kaplan, while chairman Huw Jenkins also preferred Bradley after speaking to the Montclair-born coach.

Swansea currently sit 17th in the Premier League table after recording five defeats and a draw since the opening weekend of the season.

Head Coach Bob Bradley of the United States watches his team lose to Spain at Gillette Stadium on June 4, 2011 in Foxboro, Massachusetts.
