“Paul Scholes, a true legend of the game, hails from Langley, Middleton, and is widely regarded as one of the greatest midfielders of his generation— just ask @zidane!
“Recently, a public poll was held to decide which local subject should be celebrated with a mural, and Scholes not only won but did so by a significant margin.
“What’s even more remarkable is that some Manchester City fans participated in the vote, choosing Scholes, which speaks volumes about the impact he’s had not only in the football world but also within the local community.
“This mural serves as a lasting tribute to his incredible career and the pride he brings to Middleton.”
