Juventus coach Max Allegri is pleased with the current form of Patrice Evra.

The former Manchester United fullback has impressed in recent weeks.

Allegri said: "Patrice is having a good year, and I'm very satisfied, especially in the latter part of the season, because in the first few months he had a bit of an adjustment period.

"He's a major player with a great personality. He was playing outside of Italy for many years, in a completely different style of football.

"But he's a smart lad, and he immediately understood the realities of the Italian League, and right now he'd doing well."
