Jack Grealish or Maddison: Giggs tells United to sign 1 of them
- Jack Grealish and James Maddison are two of the best midfielders in the Premier League
- Man United legend Giggs has now urged the club to sign either of the players to strengthen their squad
- The absence of Paul Pogba who is currently injured has left United's midfield depleted
Manchester United legend Ryan Giggs has asked the club to make a January move for either Aston Villa star Jack Grealish or Leicester's James Maddison.
The Red Devils seem short-staffed in the middle of the park with the likes of Paul Pogba, Scott McTominay currently out injured.
Though United are fifth on the table with 34 points after 23 encounters - they are 30 points behind bitter rivals and table-toppers Liverpool.

Meanwhile, Giggs believes the Old Trafford outfit must add depth to their midfield if they intend to finish well at the end of the season.
Reports claim Man United are still battling to seal a deal for Sporting Lisbon attacker Bruno Fernandes before the winter transfer window closes later this month.
And speaking on beIN Sports, Giggs said the club should now turn their attention elsewhere if they cannot land Fernandes.
The Wales boss further outlined the lack of depth in United's current squad set up, insisting Ole Gunnar Solskjaer needs reinforcements to compete effectively.
"I don’t think he’s got the players. I think he’s probably a couple of players short in actually changing that way of playing," Giggs told beIN SPORTS.

"That No.10, that focal point and also a midfielder. Whether Pogba’s that, he’s been so inconsistent. Obviously on his day he could be that player. But they’re missing a Grealish or a Maddison, a player like that which can unlock the door," he added.
The Old Trafford dwellers currently sit fifth on the standings with 34 points, six points behind fourth-placed Chelsea.
