SINGAPORE: Manchester United greats Ryan Giggs and Gary Neville have teamed up with a Singaporean billionaire to open football-themed cafes and hotels in Asia, a spokesperson for the tycoon said Wednesday. Neville told Singapore’s Straits Times that the trio would also look at expanding Hotel Football across Asia. “We have an aggressive roll-out plan for Hotel Football, looking to over 5,000 new rooms over the next five to 10 years. Rowsley announced in September that the company will open its third Cafe Football at the National Football Museum in Manchester later this year. Welsh football legend Giggs recently left his assistant manager’s role at Manchester United following the arrival of former Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho.--AFP
