Ryan Giggs denies assaulting girlfriend Kate Greville at his mansion after late night arrest
FOOTBALL legend Ryan Giggs has denied assaulting his girlfriend Kate Greville after being arrested at his mansion.
Police were scrambled to the £1.7million home in Worsley, Greater Manchester, on Saturday night amid reports of a "disturbance".
Giggs, 46, was questioned on suspicion of actual bodily harm and assault but has since been released on bail pending enquiries.
The Man Utd legend has denied the allegations and is assisting the police with their investigation, his rep confirmed.
A statement said: "Mr Giggs denies all allegations of assault made against him.
"He is cooperating with the police and will continue to assist them with their ongoing investigations."
It has since been confirmed Giggs will step aside as Wales manager for the next three games after his arrest.
Greater Manchester Police confirmed they were called at 10.05pm on Sunday to reports of a disturbance.
A spokesman said: “A woman in her 30s sustained minor injuries but did not require any treatment.
“A 46-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of section 47 assault and section 39 common assault.”
Giggs emerged from Pendleton police station yesterday afternoon after hours of questioning, and was whisked away in a black Mercedes.
Sources said he had been living in the house which he bought for his mum Lynne on the same street as his £3.5million pad, which is up for sale.
Giggs had been at Hotel Football, in Manchester, which he co-owns, earlier in the day to watch Man United’s 1-0 defeat against Arsenal.
He is then believed to have gone to the Stock Exchange Hotel, which he also co-owns with former teammate Gary Neville, in the city centre.
He has been dating Kate on and off since 2017.
They met when she started doing the PR for Hotel Football in 2013 after moving from Dubai.

Giggs went public with the relationship when he was pictured with her holidaying in Italy in August 2018.
It was eight months after his divorce from wife Stacey, whom he had been cheating on for eight years with brother Rhodri’s wife Natasha.
Giggs spent his playing career with Manchester United and is the manager of the Welsh national team.
