Giggs out for a month
Ryan Giggs: Broken a bone in his left foot
Manchester United's Ryan Giggs will be out of action for a month with a broken foot, according to manager Alex Ferguson.
Giggs had been struggling with the injury since the victory over Liverpool a month ago - but received another blow to his left foot against Derby last weekend.
United sent the winger for X-rays this week when he was barely able to walk.
It was then discovered that Giggs had broken a small bone in his left foot.
Ferguson said: "It is a bad blow for us, particularly with the crucial Champions League game in Barcelona only three weeks away.
"We discovered the injury after he was hurt again playing against Derby."
It means that Swedish winger Jesper Blomqvist will retain his left-wing role in the United side.
