Manchester United, Patrice Evra Agree To Contract Extension

What is clear is how vital Evra is to United’s continued push for trophies. As Sir Alex Ferguson has said many times, he’s clearly one of the top left backs in the world and is instrumental in conducting the team’s attack on the left flank while maintaining a solid defensive presence. Evra, for his part, is understandably delighted to remain at one of the top teams in the world, telling Manchester United’s official website:

By the time the deal ends, Evra will be 33 years old, so this may well be his last big payday as a professional. Fortunately for Evra and Manchester United fans, he looks set to add to his already-large collection of honours over the next few years.
