Manchester United legend Paul Scholes has been charged with misconduct by the Football Association for an alleged breach of betting rules.
An FA statement confirmed that Scholes is alleged to have 'placed 140 bets on football matches, contrary to FA Rule E8, between 17 August 2015 and 12 January 2019.'
The 44-year-old has until 26 April to respond to the charge.
Scholes' most recent alleged bet was placed several weeks before he was appointed manager at boyhood club Oldham this year, but the retired star has been a co-owner of non-league side Salford City since 2014 after buying into the club with several of his 'Class of '92' friends.
