Manchester United legend Ryan Giggs is under consideration at Hull City.

Giggs is among the front-runners to be the next Hull boss after Steve Bruce sensationally walked out, says the Daily Star.

Another of Bruce's former Manchester United team-mates, Roy Keane, is also a candidate to take charge at the KCOM Stadium after the Premier League new boys were left reeling by the 55-year-old's decision to quit.

Tim Sherwood and ex-Newcastle boss Steve McClaren - a former Hull player - are set to apply after Bruce quit in frustration at a total lack of investment in the squad just three weeks before the Tigers' kick-off their return to the top-flight.

His players were told of the bombshell news on Friday morning when Bruce failed to turn up to take training.

His decision brings the curtain down on a turbulent four years at the helm during which he became the club's most successful-ever boss.
