The United legend made 398 appearances at Old Trafford, and was part of the 1999 Treble-winning team.
Schmeichel recently defended current United stopper David de Gea - who made a string of howlers towards the end of the season.
He said: "I think everyone who is jumping on that bandwagon, saying 'drop De Gea' and all of that, are so far out of order.
"The guy has been playing in the same team that hasn't been performing well for a long time and he's been absolutely outstanding.

"And as soon as he makes, you know, the smallest mistake, then everyone jumps on him, and I think it's unfair.
"For me, I just want to say this and end it.
"As far as I'm concerned, I think you should have a little bit of consideration towards him, because I think it's out of order.”
Peter Schmeichel is however not the only ex-footballer to have won the heart of a younger partner.
Ian Rush, David Ginola and Brendan Rodgers have also scored with sexy younger Wags.
