Patrice Evra reveals he once 'nearly killed' Gary Neville in Manchester United training

Patrice Evra has revealed he once 'almost killed' Gary Neville in training at Manchester United.

Former left back Evra spent eight-and-a-half years at Old Trafford between 2006 to 2014, racking up almost 400 appearances.

After a tricky start at the club, the Frenchman went on to become a United legend - winning five Premier League titles and one Champions League during eight full campaigns.

But the 41-year-old reflected on one particular bust-up in training with Neville that led to Sir Alex Ferguson suspending the session.

'I nearly killed Gary Neville, I'll be honest with you,' he told his YouTube channel.
