"I have spoken to him (new manager David Moyes) a couple of times but I am going to take a nice break now and try and get my head away from football for a little bit," Scholes told Sky Sports News.

"You do find it hard with all the pre-season games, though, you find yourself watching them.

"Obviously it's nice there is something there for me if I want to go back to it. I am sure ultimately I probably will take up the coaching offer."

Scholes scored 107 goals in 499 appearances for Manchester United in a career that spanned for 20 years.
