EVRA SUGGESTS SANCHEZ JOINED MANCHESTER UNITED FOR THE MONEY

Patrice Evra has questioned if Alexis Sanchez's move to Manchester United was motivated by money after he turned down the chance to join rivals City.

Speaking to Gary Neville in an interview for Sky Sports, the former United defender said: 'Some players only come for the money, I am not afraid to say that.

'I have nothing against him, but Sanchez, when I saw the deal, that's when I thought the Manchester United history just went down.




'He had Manchester City, they were offering less money but he was going to play a better football than United - I'm sorry about that, but City play better football. Guardiola will also improve him.'

Evra, who played for United for seven-and-a-half years and won 10 major trophies, added: 'So I want to know what is the real reason for choosing United? Don't tell me he loved Manchester United when he was a kid.

'It's either the money or he wanted to be the number one, take the No 7 shirt and be the star.'
