Patrice Evra is no longer afraid to face the one who hurt him so much, to tell how he destroyed his life when he was just a young boy. This man is the principal of his college, who sexually assaulted him several times when he was 13.
Retired since July 2019, Patrice Evra is preparing to release his autobiography, I love this game, available from October 28th. British daily The Times has unveiled some extracts, in which the former player of the France team details the sexual assault of which he was the victim. The principal of his college had offered to host him at his home several nights a week, so that he would be less tired from the trips back and forth between his town of Ulis (Essone) and his new college.
“Thinking I was asleep, he ran his hands under my quilt and tried to touch me. I knew what he was doing was wrong, so I tried to push him away and hit him. I was strong, but I was afraid […]. It could last 10 or 15 minutes, like a fight, writes the former Manchester United player in his autobiography. He wasn’t kidding; he was trying at all costs to take my pants off. In the dark, he didn’t speak. But he was touching himself and the situation turned him on sexually. […] The last night at his house, when he knew I was going to go home, he finally got it. He put my penis in his mouth. “
