傑斯 !!!!

在他14 歲的生日，費格遜到了傑斯在曼徹斯特市裡史雲頓(Swinton) 的家，希望可以簽他成為學徒。班尼斯(Ken Barnes) 曼城的球探，已經肯定了他們不會對傑斯提供任何合約，明顯地這是他們的損失。在他剛剛過了17 歲時，傑斯就和球隊簽下了職業球員的合約。

他首次為曼聯在聯賽中亮相是在1991 年3 月2 日時主場對愛華頓一戰，他以後備身份入替艾雲。而他首次在聯賽正選上陣則是在同一季的季尾時的曼徹斯特打毗大戰，他更射入了全場唯一的入球。

1991/92 年球季因為沙柏(Lee Sharpe) 受傷的關係，傑斯可以得到一席正選的位置，出任球隊的左翼。

Beginnings
Giggs began his football career at Manchester City, signed as a 14 year old by the club after being spotted on the streets of Manchester. His mazy dribbling skills would earn him comparisons to players such as George Best, Diego Maradona, and Johan Cruyff.

Giggs's talent grew in reputation, and thus Alex Ferguson, manager of Manchester United, went to his house to urge him to sign for Manchester United instead of Manchester City. He persuaded Giggs by waiving YTS Scheme forms with the opportunity to turn professional in three years. Giggs ended up signing with Manchester United.

Similarly, England Under-21 coach Lawrie McMenemy checked to see whether he was eligible to play for the nation. Contrary to popular belief, Giggs could not have played for the full England national side. He was only eligible to play for the English Schools' team because he went to school there. In order to play for the England national football team, he would have had to have been born in England or have had English parents or grandparents. However, both his parents and all four grandparents are Welsh. Giggs has often been seen by England supporters as the dream solution to the lack of left-sided English talent for the national team during the 1990s.

A left-sided winger who occasionally plays as a supporting striker for United, Giggs shot to superstardom in Great Britain in 1992 as one of the most exciting talents in the history of the game when he was barely 18 years old. He earned the tag of Boy Wonder, and in one description by the tabloids, became The boy who converted a million innocent teenage hearts into United fans.

He was arguably the first teenage football poster boy to have garnered such attention since the likes of George Best, a player Giggs has been compared to, and who, alongside Bobby Charlton, personally went down to United's training sessions at 'the Cliff' specifically to watch Giggs play. Giggs's form in the years to come was impeccable, earning him two PFA Young Player of the Year awards and admirers world-wide. Other world-class players like Roberto Baggio described Giggs as 'the most exciting British footballer' they had seen in years. According to an article in World Soccer by Stephen Thanabalan he was, alongside Steve McManaman, regarded as the leader of a new breed of creative new wingers in the English game that was crucial to its new image, dispensing with that of the often seen as 'boring' long-ball styles of previous generations.

賴恩·約瑟·威爾遜（Ryan Joseph Wilson，1973年11月29日—)，後隨母姓傑斯（Giggs），出生於威爾斯卡迪夫城而在英格蘭長大，職業足球運動員，現在效力於曼聯，是現時陣中效力年期最長的球員，被稱為最偉大的中場左路球員之一。在學時曾代表英格蘭學童隊（入選不論國籍，只需就讀於英格蘭境內學校），其父為塞拉利昂裔英格蘭黑人，其母為威爾斯白人，後來父母在80年代分居。從此吉格斯與父劃清界限，並改跟母姓，並改為代表威爾斯，曾是威爾斯最年青的國腳。

傑斯是曼聯歷史中獲錦標最多的球員：8次超級聯賽冠軍、1次歐洲盃賽冠軍盃及4次英格蘭足總杯。是首位連奪兩屆PFA年度最佳青年球員（1992年及1993年）的球員，只有科拿及朗尼可以比美。傑斯同時是超級聯賽進球最多的非前鋒球員，保持曼聯最快的進球時間（1995年11月對修咸頓的15秒）。傑斯在曼聯及威爾斯的球衣編號同是「11」號。因腳法秀麗而被稱為「威爾斯巫師」。

開始
傑斯在家鄉的迪安青年足球隊（Dean's Youth FC）展開其多姿多彩的足球事業，迪安的教練丹尼斯·科斯菲爾得（Denis Schofield）推薦傑斯加入曼城的傑出運動員學校（School of Excellence）。但傑斯的球技吸引曼聯的注意，在他的14歲生日當天，費格遜親自敲門造訪，游說傑斯在三年後滿十七歲即可轉為職業球員，獲得傑斯在青年訓練計劃（YTS Scheme）的表格上簽名，加入曼聯成為未來「紅魔鬼」的一員猛將。
