Scholes could join backroom team

- By LAURIE WHITWELL

RYAN GIGGS is weighing up an approach to make Paul Scholes a part of his Wales backroom staff. Giggs wants to have the ‘right dynamic’ on the coaching set-up to create the best training environmen­t for success as he turns his attention to assembling a support team. The 43-year-old would like assistance from Welsh staff but did not rule out Scholes when a reunion with his former Manchester United team-mate was proposed. Scholes, who was involved in talks over the Oldham manager’s job in October, is a BT Sport TV pundit and helps with coaching sessions at Salford City. ‘It will be a balance of Welsh and potentiall­y non-Welsh,’ said Giggs of his backroom team. ‘I am not giving names, but they have to be right for the job. They have to be someone who is going to contribute to the success of the Welsh national team. That is my main focus. ‘You have to have the right dynamic around the team. You have to have trust, but someone who will bring a lot to the team.’
