At 38 it is expected that Scholes will retire from playing for a second time in the summer after coming back to help out United, but injuries have seen to it that he has not played in 2013.
Scholes could go into Fergie's backroom staff after spending six months as a first team coach before coming out of retirement in January 2012.
But Ferguson has yet to find out from the man himself whether he is to be in the playing squad next season or in the backroom staff.
He said: "He'll be here anyway - whether as a player or coach. We'll have to wait and see with Scholes."
