Former Manchester United striker Mark Hughes believes a successful European Championship with Wales would make Ryan Giggs a contender to become United manager.
Hughes believes Giggs missed out on the job in 2016 because United wanted a big-name boss to rival Manchester City's Pep Guardiola.
But he says the Wales manager, 46, is now better placed to take charge at Old Trafford.
"I think Ryan is in a good place in his management career," Hughes said.
"He is on an upward trend. He is probably more likely to get an opportunity at Manchester United than he was when [Louis] van Gaal left [in 2016].
"Maybe they felt his management CV wasn't strong enough at that point, but if he goes to the European Championship and does well, then there's no reason why he won't be in the frame."
