Nothing about it yet on the major outlets such as BBC Sport, Sky Sports on manutd.com about this.  It won't shock me if it turns out to be true but until it's confirmed by a reputable source I'll cling onto the hope he's going to play one more year!

a sad day not just for Manchester united fans but football fans a great my only regret is he didn't get the send of by winning the CL at home in england a role model for all players never made a fuse . i will always remember his goal against Barcelona and also the time he went to punch xaix alonso lol .

"Is understood to have" not has!!! Wait until you here it from United Camp, Clark Kent!!

I'll miss Paul. He's United through and through, his vicious tackles aswell. Best of luck in the future.

[:'(] Most technically gifted player Englands produced since Gazza. Fantastic player a true great.

I think we all knew it was coming, but it is still a very saddening piece of news for me personally. A true legend of the game, he will be sorely missed, but the time had probably come. He wasn't able to force his way into the team, and his best days were definitely behind him. ‎"Scholes is undoubtedly the best player of his generation" - Zinedine Zidane "An amazingly gifted player..." - Roy Keane " He epitomises the spirit of Manchester United and everything that is good about football" - Sir Bobby Charlton http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&cd=1&sqi=2&ved=0CCcQqQIwAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.express.co.uk%2Fposts%2Fview%2F249696%2FPaul-Scholes-is-packing-his-bags&ei=Z1bjTbnmBtG3hAeix-TpBw&usg=AFQjCNEBppRZ3j3xhQvaI71C8mIugjYjAg
