Patrice Evra has denied allegations of homophobia after Paris Saint-Germain accused him of aiming anti-gay insults at the club.
The former France captain mocked the French champions after they were dumped out of the Champions League in dramatic fashion by Manchester United.
In a video posted on social media on Monday, the former United star said: “This is Manchester. Stop going off on one [about PSG] and validating teams who will never win anything.
“Even my cousin who is in the front [of the car] is p***** off. Paris, you are some f****ts, some f****ts, I’m telling you. We [United] put our D team [against PSG] and we did you.
“Some kids played, they used to clean my boots. They don’t even have sperm [yet]. Paris, you are some p*****s.”

PSG strongly condemned Evra’s words and issued a statement accusing the 37-year-old of homophobia.
“Paris Saint-Germain condemns Patrice Evra’s homophobic insults aimed at the club, its representatives and its former players in a video released yesterday on social media,” the Ligue 1 club said.
“These remarks profoundly shocked the club, which is particularly committed to the values of respect and inclusiveness.â€
And Evra has now issued an apology, claiming the French media have twisted his words.
He said: “I am here to clarify a massive misunderstanding.
“I made a video as a joke, as a friend, and because I used the word [f****t], they [French media] translated as I am against the gay people.
