The Player: Paul Scholes

Paul Scholes (Salford, November 16, 1974) is one of the most elegant and complete midfielders in the history of English football and an absolute legend of Manchester United. A club icon, he spent his entire career with the Red Devils, distinguishing himself for his extraordinary vision, passing accuracy, and one of the most powerful long-range shots of his time. With Manchester United, he won eleven Premier League titles and two Champions League titles, as well as numerous domestic cups. The 2012/2013 season, which ended with the club's twentieth league title, was also the last of his career. His number 16 has entered the legend of Old Trafford, making this jersey a highly valuable memento for collectors and fans worldwide.

Replica Name and Number: What it Means

The name Scholes and number 16 on this jersey are in replica version, meaning they are reproduced and do not correspond to the official Nike print used on match kits. This is an unofficial personalization applied to an original store club jersey. This does not affect the authenticity of the jersey, which remains an original Nike Manchester United item, but it is information that MTM always provides transparently to the collector for a fully informed purchasing decision.

What is a Store Jersey?

A Store jersey is the official version intended for sale to the public and fans, produced by the club's technical sponsor and distributed through official channels. It differs from the Player Issued and Match Worn versions in its standard cut and materials designed for everyday use, while still maintaining the official logos, crests, and patches of the reference season. For collectors, it represents the most authentic and accessible way to own a piece of their club's history, especially when linked to an iconic season and champion.
