Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson has dismissed suggestions that Paul Scholes could play for England again.
Harry Redknapp recently said that the 37-year-old, who came out of retirement for the Red Devils last month, could still make an impact on the international stage.
"Do you really honestly believe that?" Ferguson told reporters. "I don't think there's any chance of that. To go back again to play for England, eight years after his last game, is a big, big step.
"I think Paul will be concentrating [on United], if he decides to go on. Whether he decides to stay is a part that hasn't been settled yet, but with the form he has shown, there is no reason why he can't play on next season. I just think it is too big a step to go back to England."
Scholes retired from international football in 2004 after making 66 appearances for his country.
