PATRICE EVRA WILL shake Luis Suarez’s hand before tonight’s Champions League final and then plans to make his presence felt by the Barcelona forward during the match in Berlin.
Suarez was banned for eight matches in 2011 after the Football Association found the Uruguay international guilty of racially abusing Evra during a clash between Liverpool and Manchester United.
There was more controversy when Suarez refused to shake France left-back Evra’s hand at Old Trafford when the two players met for the first time after his suspension.
Evra revealed that Suarez, who stressed that he is not a racist, has not apologised, but the Juventus defender will not snub the Barca forward when the Serie A winners attempt to be crowned European champions for the first time since 1996.
He told ITV Sport: “I don’t want his apologies. It doesn’t matter, it’s no problem for me. But when we are going to play the game, I will shake his hand. He will never be my best friend, but this is not a problem.
“The past is the past. I am really proud of my colour and I will shake his hand like I did with Manchester when we played against Liverpool. My game is against Barcelona, it is not against Luis Suarez, but I will make sure he will feel me on the pitch.”
does this lad ever shut up about Suarez? he’s like a leech
Get over it. He’s one of the biggest whinge merchants in the game.
Bitter little bollix, get over it.
Think he got over it by winning a lot more trophies at Man Utd than Suarez did at Liverpool. Just saying!
What has that got to do with anything?? Are you just trying to put in a little dig that united are more successful lately than Liverpool……we know
I don’t think he’s going to win that one in the end Colin
Clearly he’s answering the questions he’s being asked by the press
Suarez is one of the top 5 players in the world while evra is a has been that will only be remembered for that “incident” kinda sad on his behalf
Typical comment from Alan B.
Isnt too many “has beens” playing in a Champions League Final to win their 3rd trophy of the season

Whay is suarez not in it ?????
Frank you look like the real slim shadey. love the hair man
What you said is in fact false Alan. Evra may be in his 30s but he’s not a “has been”. Has won two trophies this season already and is in fact playing in a champions league final for a third trophy.
The bit about Suarez is right but we all know that.
Stephane Henchoz.
In fairness he was good that ye but cat for us after that
Would the real slim shady please stand up
Cream always rises to the top the rest gets substituted
Well shut the f**k up about it so Patrice!
Good I’d say because your not going to get any off Suarez
Never even heard of Evra until he dragged Suarez’ name through the dirt!
I know ya. Evra the sick fooker making Suarez bite all those people
Outside of this I wonder what price suarez is to be sent off like! Ha!
Or for suarez or Neymar to cheat there way to a win ! Thats why I really hope Juve wins , their two of the best players in the world but there are no bigger cheats or Oscar nominees out there
He should chalk it down to experience
