| Patrice Evra says leaving Manchester United for Juventus was heart breaking |
NEWS NEWS BLOG SPORT brings you all the latest news from Old Trafford.
Manchester United legend Patrice Evra has spoken out on his exit to Juventus in 2014, insisting it was his decision to leave.
Evra was a huge favourite among fans before the switch to Italy and revealed his deep regret at how everything panned out but claims it was a decision that had to be made.
"It’s hard to talk about it now," he said. "It was heartbreaking, but I made the choice for my family. I do not want to talk about the details.
“Manchester didn’t want to me to leave, but before the end of the league season, I explained that I had to leave."
Elsewhere, Victor Valdes seems destined for the exit door as well and Newcastle could rescue him from his United nightmare.
Valdes has barely played since joining the club in January and the Magpies are desperate for a new stopper after Tim Krul was ruled out for the season.
Rivals Manchester City also have injury worries after David Silva and Sergio Aguero were ruled out of the upcoming Manchester derby.
Aguero is expected to be out for months, while Silva will miss at least two weeks.

| Victor Valdes could be leaving the club to join Newcastle |
In transfer news, United may well have been handed a boost in their pursuit of Real Madrid star Gareth Bale.
The club were willing to break the world-record transfer fee to sign him in the summer and he has been targeted by the Spanish media again.
It was claimed he is "jealous" of Cristiano Ronaldo and a quarter of the player that he is.
While Bale appears determined to stay in Spain, United could be the benefactors if he becomes unsettled.
