The controversy involving Patrice Evra and several football pundits, including Bixente Lizarazu, Rolland Courbis, Luis Fernandez, and Pierre Menès, continues to escalate. After Evra’s verbal attack on the pundits, particularly during an interview on Téléfoot, tensions are rising in French football.
Pierre Menès responded to Evra’s comments on Canal+, expressing his lack of fear and willingness to confront Evra physically if necessary. Menès stated that he is not intimidated by Evra, emphasizing that he has neither respect nor admiration for the player. Menès also mentioned that he was shocked that Evra was still a part of the French national team, and he criticized Evra’s performance on the pitch.
In response, Evra expressed his desire to meet Menès and mentioned that he hopes to “catch him.” Evra also suggested that Florent Malouda had already confronted Menès in the past. The situation adds an extra layer of tension ahead of the World Cup play-offs against Ukraine.
