WATCH: Disturbing video of Patrice Evra shows Man Utd legend wielding knife with his body covered in fake blood as he celebrates Halloween

Evra has carved out a reputation as being one of the most colourful personalities in football and he has lived up to that with a truly disturbing Halloween video.

The Manchester United legend drenched himself in fake blood, got himself what appears to be a fake machete, and applied makeup that mimics exposed ribs and a serious facial injury.

Evra has been retired since 2018 but went down as a United legend, playing for the club between 2006 and 2014, and winning five Premier League trophies, three League Cups, the Champions League and the FIFA Club World Cup.

He also won Serie A twice with Juventus, and has been a Champions League runner-up on four occasions, twice with United, once with Juve, and once with AS Monaco.

Evra wrote on his Instagram post: "HAPPY HALLOWEEN. I tried my best to look scary. (Even my mum call me (sic) and ask if I had an accident)."

The former left-back also made sure to include his famous "I love this game" quote among the hashtags; rest assured that he says it a few times in the video too!

One has to imagine that Evra will be letting his mother know he is okay, although his 'I love this game' exploits are unlikely to stop - with Christmas now on the way we can't wait for his themed video around December 25th!
