Former Manchester United midfielder Paul Scholes has been cleared by the English Football League to become the manager of League Two side Oldham Athletic, and he could soon take over from Academy boss Pete Wild, who has been in charge since Frankie Bunn’s sacking late December.
The 44-year-old comes across as a quiet fella, and many, including his former United teammate Paul Ince are surprised that he is set to go into management given how life in the dugout is.
Scholes has enjoyed success as a pundit since retiring in 2013, but he is looking to make a big career move, and Ince can’t believe it given how quiet he was and uninterested in football he seemed back in the day.
