Head of loans and pathways at Manchester United, Jonny Evans, has named two teammates who stood out as a level above the rest.

Evans had two spells at Manchester United from 2006-2015 (first spell) and 2023 (second spell).

The Northern Irishman played 198 matches across all competitions for Man United as he won three Premier League titles, one UEFA Champions League and two League Cups during his first spell at Old Trafford.

The centre-back made 43 appearances in all competitions in his second spell as he won the FA Cup in 2024.

“I always thought Scholes and Giggs were on another level to the rest of the team,” Evans told Sky Sports.

“Even though we had world-class players, I felt like their IQ was just a little bit higher than everyone else’s.”
