The heart of the matter
Evra, who retired yesterday, spoke about his surprising exit from Manchester United in 2014 and the circumstances that led to him leaving the club.
The French full-back had signed a one-year contract extension at the club but left for Turin after just 2 months.
The Frenchman said that at that juncture, he felt extremely dissapointed. He called Ed and swore to him on the phone and even threatened him. Ed said that Evra couldn’t talk in that manner to the director of the football and told that he was even going to fine the latter. But Evra was visibly perturbed, and had this to say of the situation above,
Patrice Evra later patched up his relationship with Ed Woodward as the Frenchman himself explains what might’ve made Woodward make the decison.
What’s next?
Patrice Evra will now finish his coaching badges but has expressed his desire to continue working in TV shows while alsoexpanding his brand.
