New deals for Giggs and Scholes

(GSM) – Sir Alex Ferguson has revealed that Manchester United are about to offer their veteran duo Paul Scholes and Ryan Giggs a one-year contract extension.

Both players have played their whole career at Old Trafford and are set to sign new deals to underline their loyalty for The Red Devils.

Giggs is the reigning PFA Player of the Year and is the latest Premier League player to score 100 goals.

Meanwhile Scholes has also built a legacy at Manchester United and he still has quality in his game despite his age passing 35.

“Ryan will be offered a new contract for next season, which is an indication of what we think of him coming up to 37 next season, and Paul knows he will be offered one as well,” Ferguson said.

“Ryan is an example to young people,” said Ferguson.

“He has humility and he has never changed and I think he is having his best years now.

“He has retained that amazing quality in his game and also an enthusiasm to play.”

Fergie added, “I spoke to Paul and he said he didn’t actually say he was thinking of his future.

“When you get to that age every player starts to think about what the future holds for him.

“But when you see Paul’s performances at West Ham and in Wolfsburg last week there is no reason to think he can’t do it again next year again.

“Maybe he thinks he should be playing every game. That’s fine, but I know that’s not fair.

“We want the quality. We want to see Scholes perform like he did on Tuesday and the best way of doing that is to gauge the games we know he is going to dominate.”
