THE LATEST ENGLISH PREMIER LEAGUE NEWS – Manchester United left-back Patrice
Evra downplayed reports that he is bound to transfer to big-spending Ligue 1
club Paris Saint-Germain, saying
that he is happy to play for the Old Trafford club.
Amidst reports indicating that he
may make the move to PSG, Evra jokingly said that people have to kill manager
Sir Alex Ferguson first before such a transfer could ever happen, despite the
possibility of a larger salary package from the Qatari-backed French outfit.
Evra is not planning to leave a
footpr1nt for departure soon as he plans to stay throughout the entirely of his
contract, which lasts until 2014. United’s policy of providing a one-year
contract extension to players over 30 casted doubts on his future.
