Paris Saint-Germain has condemned Patrice Evra’s “deeply shocking” comments after his former club Manchester United’s Champions League victory over the Ligue 1 side.
Evra was in the stands in the French capital alongside current United midfielder Paul Pogba when the Premier League team overturned a two-goal first-leg deficit to advance to the Champions League’s quarter-finals on away goals.
Footage posted on social media showed Evra wildly celebrating Marcus Rashford’s late penalty and he followed that up with an expletive-laden rant that contained homophobic slurs, which emerged online after ex-Monaco team-mate Jerome Rothen had criticised the former French international’s antics in the stands.
