Hull winger Elmohamady drawing inspiration from Giggs

Hull City winger Ahmed Elmohamady says Manchester United legend Ryan Giggs is acting as inspiration.

Elmohamady hopes to emulate Giggs by playing into his 40's.

"It was an honour for me to participate in a match where he featured for the last time," he said.

"In England they idolise this man, call him a 'legend'. The man is an example for every small player that he is 40 years old and still plays for a big club like Manchester United, still playing in the Champions League.

"I hope to emulate him and play in the English Premier League till I'm 40-years-old like him."
