Man United Legend, Evra Teases Chelsea’s Palmer For Red Devils Connection

Patrice Evra, a former Manchester United defender, jokingly expressed his disappointment with Chelsea forward Cole Palmer for letting down the Red Devils by playing for Manchester City.

Evra quipped about needing to have a conversation with Palmer’s parents, considering the youngster’s deep-rooted support for Manchester United since childhood.

Despite this allegiance, Palmer emerged from Manchester City’s academy before making a switch to Chelsea in a notable £42.5 million deal during the last summer transfer window.

The 20-year-old has showcased a stellar start at Chelsea, displaying promise and even scoring a goal in his team’s recent Premier League match against Manchester United, where Chelsea faced a 2-1 defeat.

In a lighthearted tone on Amazon Prime, Evra playfully remarked, “I think it’s not a great moment. He grew up a United fan, and then ends up playing for City and scores against United? ”

Evra’s banter adds a playful twist to Palmer’s journey, reflecting on the irony of a devoted Manchester United fan now making waves at a rival club.
