Scholes: De Ligt is not significantly better than Maguire, says Ansser Sadiq

Scholes was questioned about several of the signings that United have made during the summer transfer window.

He singled out former Ajax and Bayern Munich center half Matthijs De Ligt as one who may not be as good as fans are expecting.

Scholes stated on The Overlap: "Erik ten Hag couldn't wait to get Matthijs de Ligt instead of Harry Maguire, he was just waiting for the opportunity. 

“I'm not sure it’s that much of an upgrade – De Ligt played against Southampton, Maguire would have been fine against Southampton. 

“He might be slightly better, but it's not a massive improvement where you think, 'Wow'. It’s like that with all the signings."
