Evra is most likely to leave Old Trafford this Summer

The France international, who turns 33 in May, has yet to receive a contract extension offer from the Red Devils – and is subsequently expected to leave the club at the end of the season.

Evra could return to former club AS Monaco, who are currently fighting for the Ligue 1 title and should be competing in the Champions League next season.

The full-back played for the club between 2002 and 2006 before joining Premier League giants Manchester United for a reported £5.5m fee.

In his eight years at Old Trafford, Evra has won five Premier League titles and a European Cup.

He remains a hugely popular figure amongst his teammates and supporters, but United boss David Moyes is keen to recruit a long-term replacement, and could even sign Real Madrid full-back Fabio Coentrao this month.

The Portuguese defender is reportedly close to joining the Red Devils on an initial loan deal until the end of the current campaign.
