Scholes: England was an option

Scholes: England was an option

08 June 2010 - 07:57

Man Utd midfielder Paul Scholes had revealed that he would have considered returning to the England fold, but felt guilty that he could have robbed someone of a place in the England squad in South Africa.

  • Chelsea midfielder looking forward to London derby vs Spurs
  • Arsenal in the front row to sign Dutch striker

  • Scholes said of his potential England link up: "It wasn't a case of wanting to go on holiday, it was the fact that I got the call so close to the tournament, and also I didn't want to take the place of someone who helped get England to South Africa."



    Scholes, now 35, will continue to focus on his club football at Man Utd.
