Man Utd convince Juventus to up bid for Evra

Juventus face coughing up more than expected for Manchester United fullback Patrice Evra.

The Daily Star Sunday says Evra, 33, will receive a £1.5million severance payment from United as a reward for his service to the club over the last eight years.

And United have held out for a £4m fee from the Italian club that covers their golden-goodbye payment to Evra, who recently signed a 12-month deal at Old Trafford.

It also gives United some financial compensation for losing an experienced player.
