Evra Staying With United

Patrice Evra's agent insists his client with be staying with Manchester United until the summer amid rumours Real Madrid want the full-back.

It had been speculated that Real Madrid manager Jose Mourinho wanted to bring the France international to Santiago Bernabeu.

United were also believed to be tracking Benfica's Fabio Coentrao as a possible replacement for Evra, but Federico Pastorelo insists his client is going nowhere at the moment.

Evra's representatives held talks with manager Sir Alex Ferguson where it was decided that he would remain at Old Trafford.

The 29-year-old former Monaco man is tied to United until the summer of 2012 and Pastorelo has revealed it will be decided this summer whether he pens new terms or moves on.

"No, there is nothing really to report on Patrice (Evra)," he told Sport.co.uk.

"There has been interest, and I have read about Real Madrid but really the only official interest was from Inter Milan last summer.

"We had a long chat with Sir Alex Ferguson and it was decided he would stay in Manchester.

"His contract runs out in the summer of 2012 and there he is concentrating and focused on this season.

"We will sit down in the summer with Manchester United and decide whether he will extend his contract or move on. But for the moment there is nothing special to say on the situation."
