Giggs set for Italian job! Crocked Man United star could return against Milan

Sir Alex Ferguson has raised the possibility of Ryan Giggs being available for the Champions League tie with AC Milan next month. Giggs fractured his arm during the recent Premier League encounter with Aston Villa. At the time it was thought the veteran Welshman would be out of action for four weeks, and probably slightly longer. But, while Giggs did miss the first leg against Milan at the San Siro and will also be consigned to the stands for Sunday's Carling Cup final, Ferguson has delivered an upbeat summary of the wide-man's recovery so far. Milan return: Giggs could be fit for the Champions League last-16 second leg If all goes to plan, the 36-year-old could be back to face Milan -and old friend David Beckham - when United look to reach the last eightnext month. 'Ryan still has the injury to the arm,' said Ferguson. 'But we aretaking the plate out at the end of the week and he will be in fulltraining after that, which is good news.' Are Roo okay?
