Paul Scholes signs for India's Premier Futsal

Manchester United legend and former midfielder Paul Scholes will come out of retirement for the second time in his playing career as he signs up for Indian tournament Premier Futsal.

All set for its inaugural season this year, Premier Futsal is an indoor football league with five aside and is played on a hard-court surface.

Scholes, who is regarded as arguably one of the best midfielder of his generation, has signed a three-year contract to play in the Indian tournament.

“Futsal is a fascinating format that has played a pivotal role in developing the skills of some of the greatest football players,” said Scholes.
