Man Utd legend Scholes praised by Van Bommel

Former Bayern Munich midfielder Mark van Bommel has paid tribute to Manchester United legend Paul Scholes.

The pair will meet in the Legends game on Sunday.

"Club icon Paul Scholes is definitely the one who impressed me most in the Allianz Arena last summer," the Dutchman told manutd.com.

"During our active careers, we met a few times on the pitch. I always looked with admiration to his intelligent movement and powerful shooting from long range. Also, his technical skills and accurate passing were remarkable. He is a true legend."
