Paul Scholes has been charged with misconduct in relation to the
FA’s betting rules.
It is alleged he
placed 140 bets on football matches, contrary to FA Rule E8, between August
2015 and January 2019.
That period relates
to when Scholes was a part-owner of non-league side Salford City but before his
appointment as Oldham manager in February 2019.
He has until April
26, 2019 to respond to the charge.
Scholes was Oldham
manager for a month before quitting in March saying his position at the Sky Bet
League Two club had become untenable.
He made 720
appearances for Manchester United in all competitions, winning 11 Premier
League titles.
The 44-year-old
also made 66 appearances for England, scoring 14 times.
