Neal Maupay stuns social media as he delivers jaw-dropping response to Paul Scholes
Neal Maupay’s incredible response to Paul Scholes was in reference a bizarre video that went viral in 2021 showing the Manchester United legend chewing his daughter Alicia’s toenails
Neal Maupay has delivered an outrageous response to Paul Scholes after claiming the former Brighton star “takes the p***”.
The outspoken forward, who now plays for Ligue 1 Marseille on loan from Everton, is a well-known wind-up merchant after infamously having a social media spat with James Maddison. He caused the row after copying his trademark darts celebration last year.
Scholes was discussing the incident during the Overlap Fan Debate and dismissed the 28-year-old, saying: “He just takes the p****”.
Maupay hit back: “Surprised Paul Scholes can fit my name in his mouth alongside his daughter’s toes,” alongside an emoji of a foot.
He was referencing a bizarre video that went viral in 2021 showing Scholes chewing his daughter Alicia’s toenails.
Fans on social media were left in stitches by the stunning reply, as one wrote: “I despise you as a player/person, but this comment is hilarious banter. Fair play.” Another called it “a violation” as one added: “Boy went to France and chose violence. Respect.”
“Maupay is the gift that keeps on giving,” a further tweet read, as another said: “Maupay has genuinely ruined Scholes here, genuinely laughed out loud.”
Scholes’ infamous toenail-chewing clip came during the same time when Manchester United were thumped 5-0 at Old Trafford as he admitted: “I’ve had better weekends.”
