And before United hosted Tottenham, Evra gave them and host Gabby Logan a good laugh by taking a chunk of grass out of the pitch and proceeding to taste it.

He said: โ€œThis is home, I call it home. Itโ€™s a little bit windy but donโ€™t worry guys Iโ€™ve asked someone to turn off the AC.

โ€œAnd yeah of course, whenever I come here I always do that. Do you know Gabby, I always taste the grass.

โ€œAnd yes, itโ€™s a little bit garlicy but it tastes the same. But yeah, this is my home and bon appetit.โ€

Evra, who signed for United in 2006, won five Premier League titles in Manchester and one Champions League trophy.

But he ended his eight-year affair with the club in 2014, signing for Juventus in Italy.

Evra, now 41, had stints with Marseille and West Ham before announcing his retirement in 2019.

The defender has since returned to United as a trainee coach at the clubโ€™s academy.

United host Spurs while sitting fifth in the Premier League, 11 points behind leaders Arsenal.

They come into the game having drawn 0-0 with Newcastle at the weekend.

Cristiano Ronaldo, 37, saw a goal disallowed and gives way in Unitedโ€™s line-up to Marcus Rashford, 24.
