Manchester United player Patrice Evra has reportedly hinted that he may quit Manchester United when his contract expires at the end of the season.

The Frenchman's position at the club has been cast into doubt in recent months, with boss David Moyes' frantic pursuit of Everton's Leighton Baines over the summer, as well as the last-ditch attempt at a loan move for Fabio Coentrao.

According to Metro.co.uk, Evra admitted that he might not sign a new contract with United when his current one expires, with the report adding that French sides Paris Saint-Germain and Monaco are interested in the player.

Stating that he is not concerned about his United deal expiring at the end of the season, Evra said that although United would like him to finish his career with them, he does want to stay because of personal reasons.

Evra has made ten appearances for United this campaign, with the Premier League champions keeping just three clean sheets in all competitions, the report added.
