Juventus fullback Patrice Evra admits it was a wrench leaving Manchester United. Evra, who ended his eight-year association with United in the summer, explained how former team-mate Carlos Tevez urged him to move to Turin.
He said: "(Leaving United) was one of the toughest decisions of my career.
"It was easy to come to Juventus, because it is a great club, but it was difficult to leave United. When you play for United, you cannot get rid of the love you feel for the club.
"(Carlos) is one of the reasons I chose Juventus.
"I talked to him on the phone and asked for a few tips, and he told me: "Come here, you will see it is a great club!" To see Tevez again, to play with him again, is really enjoyable."
