Just a few weeks after David Sullivan insisted West Ham will NOT be signing older players, Patrice Evra has joined the Hammers.
“We will have to bring in two or three in January,” Sullivan, the West Ham co-owner, said. “They will be young players, they won’t be 32.”
Well, it’s good to see he is sticking to his morals; Evra is not 32… he is 36!
The former Manchester United star has penned a deal with West Ham, arriving at the London Stadium on a free transfer, having been sacked by Marseille towards the end of 2017.
