With Evans leaving the team, there is no other player in Manchester United who has played for Ferguson.

With Johnny Evans officially bid farewell to Manchester United, there is no other player in the Red Devils who once played for Sir Ferguson's coaching period, which also means that a special history of Manchester United spanning two centuries has come to an end.

Evans is the last player among Manchester United to compete under Sir Ferguson, and can be regarded as the key link connecting the "golden years" of the Ferguson era with the present. The Northern Ireland central defender was born in Manchester United's youth training system. In 2007, under the careful cultivation of legendary coach Ferguson, he made his first appearance in Manchester United's first team.

In 2015, Evans left Manchester United. Until the summer of 2023, he unexpectedly returned to Old Trafford as a free agent. At that time, he became the "emergency option" used by head coach Eric Tenhager to repair the defense, playing a unique role in the team.

Although Evans is no longer the core player of the team, his presence in the Manchester United locker room still has extraordinary symbolism. He is like a bridge connecting the club's glorious past and the challenging present. With the end of this season and Evans officially leaving, the tradition that has continued in Manchester United's history - at least one player has always played under Sir Ferguson's account - has also come to an end.

Sir Ferguson took over Manchester United's coach from 1986 to 2013, and he created a legendary football empire. During his coaching period, Manchester United won 13 Premier League titles, 2 Champions League titles and countless trophies. Nowadays, there are no old players from the Ferguson era on the team.

In fact, Manchester United has fallen into a long trough since Sir Ferguson retired. In the 2024/25 season, Manchester United's performance was disappointing, and he ended up only with the 15th place in the league and missed the championship trophy in all competitions. It is reported that Manchester United is expected to launch a comprehensive restructuring work in the summer of 2025, trying to reshape its former glory.
