Paul Scholes has said he would gladly accept an extra Premier League winners' medal if Manchester City were stripped of their titles. The former Manchester United midfielder's comments were reported by Voetbalprimeur on Saturday.

Scholes' stance contrasts with that of his former teammate Wayne Rooney, who has said he would not accept a title in such circumstances. According to Voetbalprimeur, Scholes described himself as "greedy" and said he wants the medal, a sentiment echoed by the Daily Mail and Calciomercato.com.

Manchester City's situation remains unresolved, but the debate among United legends highlights differing views on the matter.
