It is the end of an era for Manchester United star, Patrice Evra,as he has announced his retirement from football.
The 38-year-old is regarded as one of the best left back the game has witnessed in the recent history.
His career at Manchester United was marked by 10 major trophies.
He, however, sees the current off-season period as the best time to announce his departure from the pitch.
“My playing career is officially over. “I started training for the UEFA B Coaching Licence in 2013, now I want to finish it and then go on to get the UEFA A licence.
“In a year and a half, if everything goes well, I’ll be ready to lead a team,” he said in an interview.
