Paul Scholes is ready to come out of retirement to solve Manchester United's injury woes.

The 37-year-old called time on his career over the summer after 17 years at Old Trafford.

Darren Fletcher, Tom Cleverley and Ashley Young are all currently sidelined with long-term injuries.

The midfielder will put on his boots once more if manager Sir Alex Ferguson needs him during the second half of the season, according to The Sun.

The former England international still trains with the United reserves every day at the club's Carrington training facility.
