West Ham thank Collins; Evra also exits
West Ham have confirmed defenders James Collins and Patrice Evra will leave the club when their contracts expire on June 30.
Centre-back Collins, who will be 35 in August, made 214 appearances over two spells with the Irons, while Frenchman Evra, 37, signed a short-term deal in February and played five times.
West Ham joint-chairmen David Sullivan and David Gold said in a statement on the club’s website: “We would like to place on record our sincere thanks for the outstanding service James has given West Ham United down the years.”
Patrice Evra made three Premier League starts for West Ham:
