🇫🇷🗣️ Patrice Evra: “I’m not going to mention the player out of respect, but when I was playing for Juventus, one day we were on the club's plane. I went to the bathroom and in the last seat I saw a player crying.
I thought: 'What's going on? We don't have internet here, maybe he lost a family member.' I asked him: 'Why are you crying, brother?'.
He tells me: 'Because of this movie (The Notebook), this is the fourth time I've seen it and I always cry.' And I said to him: 'Okay...'. Honestly, I couldn't believe it, I went back to my seat with Carlos Tévez and said: 'Listen, don't say anything, but this guy is crying over a movie. Can you believe it?'. Tévez just laughed, but didn't say anything.
When we landed, in the locker room, and in front of everyone, Tévez said: 'Boss, how is it possible that we're going to war with a player who cries over The Notebook?'. (Laughter). And my face just dropped in embarrassment. I never told him anything in secret again."
