WILL EVRA STAY?

Patrice Evra might be leaving Manchester United this summer if David Moyes manages to bring the Everton defender Leighton Baines at Old Trafford.

Evra has been United’s first choice left back since a long time, but, he might fell behind in the pecking order with Baines’ arrival and he doesn’t want that.

However, it’s still not certain whether Baines will sign for United or not. David Moyes had made Everton an offer of 12 million Pounds, but, the Toffees rejected that offer. According to the reports, they want 16 million Pounds for their star defender.

Evra has been brilliant for Manchester United over the years. He has put up a lot of world class performances for the Red Devils and has also won a lot of trophies.

Evra is also a very popular figure in United’s changing room. With his huge experience, he is a great help to the younger guys.

But, in the last couple of seasons, Evra’s form has been under the scanner. He hasn’t performed that poorly, but, he has certainly not been at his best.

Evra’s former club Monaco has shown interest in him and the French veteran might accept their offer.

Evra played for Monaco for 4 years between 2002 and 2006 and was quite successful for them. He had made more than 100 appearances for the Ligue 1 side in those 4 years.

In January 2006, Monaco sold Evra to United. The Red Devils had paid a transfer fee of 5.5 million Pounds for buying Evra.

At the start of his Manchester United career, Evra had to face some difficulties to get used to the English conditions, but, he worked hard and improved his game to break into the starting XI of United.

Evra has so far played 233 matches for United and has netted 7 times.
