Scholes on Man United transfers

The legendary midfielder feels the club needs to add a reliable and proven centre-forward to help with

“When I think about Manchester United, I think about brilliant centre-forwards,” Scholes said via Football365.
“I think they’ve had one young one last year in Rasmus Hojlund who they have had to rely on and it was a little bit unfair. He’s a young player, still learning the game.
“They’ve bought another young one [Zirkzee]… I would like to see an experienced centre-forward come and help with that and virtually guarantee goals."
