Fenerbahce and Galatasaray are both ready to hand former Manchester United defender Patrice Evra a route back into football.

The left-back is currently without a club after leaving Marseille by mutual consent in November.

The Frenchman was involved in an altercation with one of his own fans before a Europa League game with Vitoria Guimaraes, and he ended up kicking them.

That led to Evra leaving Marseille, while he was also fined £8,829 and banned from UEFA competition until the end of the season.

It was thought the 36-year-old may hang up his boots after the incident but, according to Fanatik, he has been offered a lifeline by Turkey's two biggest clubs.
