Manchester United midfielder Paul Scholes is expected to announce his retirement for the second time this weekend.

Manchester United midfielder Paul Scholes will reportedly announce his retirement for the second time this weekend.

The 38-year-old, who joined the club in 1991, hung up his boots in 2011 before returning to action midway through last season.

However, he is now expected to confirm the end of his career ahead of Sunday's Premier League encounter with Swansea City at Old Trafford, according to the Daily Mail.

Scholes is third behind Ryan Giggs and Sir Bobby Charlton in the all-time appearances list for United having played over 700 competitive games during his two spells.
