Paul Scholes in disagreement with Sir Alex Ferguson over Man Utd's next signing

Manchester United icons Paul Scholes and Sir Alex Ferguson appear to have differing views on the club's pursuit of Tottenham talisman Harry Kane.

The Red Devils have long been linked with a move for the England international and Ferguson has previously confessed that if he could have managed one current Premier League star, it would have been three-time Golden Boot winner Kane. With that in mind, the Scotsman also told current boss Erik ten Hag which area of the pitch he should strengthen earlier this season.

Speaking after United's Carabao Cup final triumph over Newcastle in February, Ferguson analysed Marcus Rashford and suggested the burden of putting the ball in the back of the net should not fall entirely on the 25-year-old's shoulders.
