Ryan Giggs 'shocked' by late Premier League Hall of Fame snub... with the Manchester United great having missed out to Thierry Henry and Alan Shearer in the first two spots and the new 23-man shortlist amid his impending court case

Ryan Giggs is said to be furious about his Premier League Hall of fame snub on Monday as the Welshman was set to be inducted into the group over Thierry Henry, according to reports.

The former Manchester United winger was charged with assaulting two women and ‘controlling or coercive behaviour’ last week and will appear in court later this week. Giggs was suspended from his role as Wales manager ahead of Euro 2020 amid the court case. The 47-year-old has denied the charges.

Meanwhile, Henry was one of two Premier League players to be inducted into the Hall of Fame early on Monday alongside all-time record goalscorer Alan Shearer, formerly of Newcastle United and Blackburn Rovers.
