Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson has
confirmed Paul Scholes and Ryan Giggs are being offered one-year
contract extensions.
The veteran midfielders have played their part as United still
seek glory on all fronts after landing the title of world champions
at the end of last year.
"What a great player Scholes has been for us," Ferguson told
Sirius. "He will be getting another year's contract.
"Sometimes the best players are the ones you produce yourselves
and, to me, Ryan Giggs, with the service he has given us, is
unmatched.
"He's retained his fitness, he's retained his humility and he's
never changed his ambitions for the club.
"He will be given another year's contract, I'm sure of
that."
As regards a clean sweep of trophies, Ferguson insists he needs
a fully-fit squad in order to even consider pulling it off.
"It would be very difficult to do that," he added. "You would
need the luck and you would need to keep all your players fit. If
we keep everyone fit then, yes, we'd have a chance.
"But, realistically, I don't see it."
