Police have charged former Manchester United star Ryan Giggs with two charges of assault and coercive behaviour.
Greater Manchester Police on Friday confirmed the charges, which were in relation to an incident at a home in the Worsley area of the city in November 2020.
Giggs was charged with engaging in behaviour which was controlling or coercive and of assault occasioning actual bodily harm, as well as another charge of assault by beating relating to a second woman.
He has been bailed and is due to appear at Manchester and Salford Magistrates' Court on April 28.
Giggs is the current manager of the Wales national football team.
A Crown Prosecution Service spokesperson said: "We have authorised Greater Manchester Police to charge Ryan Giggs with engaging in behaviour which was controlling or coercive and assault occasioning actual bodily harm.
"A charge of assault by beating relating to a second woman has also been authorised. Mr Giggs will appear at Manchester and Salford Magistrates' Court on Wednesday April 28.
"The CPS made the decision to charge Mr Giggs after reviewing a file of evidence from Greater Manchester Police.
"Criminal proceedings are active and nothing should be published that could jeopardise the defendant's right to a fair trial."

Day 4, Dubai Test: At a glance
Moment of the day Lahiru Gamage appeared to have been hard done by when he had his dismissal of Sami Aslam chalked off for a no-ball. Replays suggested he had not overstepped. No matter. Two balls later, the exact same combination – Gamage the bowler and Kusal Mendis at second slip – combined again to send Aslam back.
Stat of the day Haris Sohail took three wickets for one run in the only over he bowled, to end the Sri Lanka second innings in a hurry. That was as many as he had managed in total in his 10-year, 58-match first-class career to date. It was also the first time a bowler had taken three wickets having bowled just one over in an innings in Tests.
The verdict Just 119 more and with five wickets remaining seems like a perfectly attainable target for Pakistan. Factor in the fact the pitch is worn, is turning prodigiously, and that Sri Lanka’s seam bowlers have also been finding the strip to their liking, it is apparent the task is still a tough one. Still, though, thanks to Asad Shafiq and Sarfraz Ahmed, it is possible.
