Former Manchester United player, Patrice Evra told the media: “It’s still hard to talk about my exit. But one day, when my career is over, I’ll be able to speak more openly about it. I came to Turin above all for my family because at Manchester they had inserted a clause in our agreement which changed the situation considerably. It really annoyed me. But I don’t regret this move, which in the end has proven to be more than positive.”
