Neal Maupay, the English footballer, traded barbs with Manchester United legend Paul Scholes after Scholes criticized Maupay's on-field behavior. Maupay responded with a defiant social media post, escalating the feud.
Neal Maupay engaged in a heated exchange with Manchester United legend Paul Scholes after Scholes publicly criticized Maupay's on-field antics. The controversy stemmed from a clip of Scholes commenting on Maupay's actions, calling him an 'idiot'. A fan at the event even drew a comparison to James Maddison's infamous celebration, seemingly suggesting that Maupay's behavior was similar.
Scholes's daughter, Alicia, had previously shared an Instagram story that showed Scholes with his toes in his mouth, leading to further speculation and amusement among fans. Maupay responded to Scholes's criticism on social media, stating that he'd scored more goals and avoided relegation more times than Scholes. This escalated the feud between the two, with Maupay seemingly not backing down from the confrontation. When questioned about the altercation, Maupay insisted he had no issues with Scholes and viewed their exchange as light-hearted banter. He emphasized his enjoyment of the competitive spirit on the field, stating that he didn't intend to change his approach despite the criticism. He also added that he was capable of handling both giving and receiving ribbing, making it clear that he wasn't overly concerned about Scholes's remarks. Maupay's future with Everton remains uncertain as the club has an obligation to make his loan move permanent in the summer. This incident, along with his history of controversial social media behaviour, might lead to his departure from English football altogether
