Former Manchester united defender, Patrice Evra revealed that Sir Alex Ferguson apologised to new arrivals Robin van Persie and Shinji Kagawa following his retirement.
Manchester United former manager Sir Alexander Chapman Ferguson is a Scottish former football manager and player who managed Manchester United from 1986 to 2013.
He is considered one of the greatest managers of all time and he has won more trophies than any other manager in the history of football.
Speaking in a UTD Podcast episode, Evra said“After two weeks, we were in the dressing room waiting,” Evra continued. “When we arrived at Carrington, I see all those cameras and I was like: ‘Wow, someone has done something wrong. Maybe a player is a story again! Someone has done something wrong, we are in trouble’.
“But we arrived and people said, ‘Guys, you have to stay in the dressing room because the boss wants to have a chat’. He [Ferguson] came, and he said, ‘I’m really sorry. Some people have said that I’m going to retire even before I say it myself. That’s why you saw all those cameras. But I will retire because my wife needs me’.
“He apologised to [Robin] van Persie, he apologised to Shinji [Kagawa], because he just brought them. He apologised to them especially.”
Robin Van Persie joined Manchester United from Arsenal in 2013 and went in to win the English Premier League for the Old Trafford outfit.
Two years later he moved on loan to Fenerbahce in 2015, but seal a transfer to Feyenoord at the end of his season loan in Turkish side.
