Patrice Evra, the widely recognized former defender for Manchester United and the France national team, is set to embark on a new challenge in the realm of combat sports. The Frenchman is slated to make his professional mixed martial arts debut at an upcoming PFL Europe tournament. This event is scheduled to take place in Paris on May 3rd. As of the current reports, the individual Evra will be facing in his inaugural MMA bout remains undisclosed.
Evra himself confirmed his intentions via social media channels. In a post, he stated, “I am officially preparing for my first fight at the PFL Europe tournament. They will find me an opponent. They asked who I want to fight, and I named Luis Suarez. I`m ready to pay myself, even if he bites me.” This remark humorously refers to a past incident involving the two players.
