PENDUKUNG Manchester United mendapat kegembiraan ganda, Senin, ketika pahlawan mereka tiba untuk bekerja di bawah sponsor baru, Chevrolet.
Lima favorit Old Trafford muncul dalam model yang sama setelah klub meraih sponsor raksasa mobil Amerika dengan nilai kontrak 357 juta poundsterling.
Chevrolet menyetujui kesepakatan tahun lalu untuk menjadi sponsor jersey resmi United di musim 2014-2015 dan General Motors menawarkan mobil-mobil terbaru untuk skuad sebagai goodwill.
Patrice Evra, Jonny Evans, Antonio Valencia dan Tom Cleverley menerima mobil Chevrolet Camaro berkecepatan 184 mil per sementara Javier Hernandez mendapat Chevrolet Corvette.
Paul Scholes juga mendapat Chevrolet senilai 40 ribu pounds - tapi dicuri di dekat rumahnya setelah ia meninggalkan mobil dalam keadaan mesin hidup.
Agustus lalu, manajer Sir Alex Ferguson memperingatkan pemain di bawah usia 23 - tidak peduli posisi mereka di tim - harus diizinkan untuk memesan model Chevrolet sporty.
Tapi dia kemudian mengambil Chevrolet idamannya - sebuah Volt hibrida yang dapat melakukan perjalanan hingga 50 mil dengan tenaga baterai, sebelum mesin bensin sebagai back-up untuk perjalanan jauh.
Chevrolet yang kini menjadi Partner Resmi Otomotif Manchester United dan akan menjadi sponsor jersey klub dimulai di musim 2014/2015.
Sejumlah staf lain juga menerima model Chevrolet sebagai bagian dari perjanjian kemitraan tujuh tahun antara klub dan General Motors.
Ini termasuk mantan bintang Juara Dunia dan legenda Manchester United, Sir Bobby Charlton, yang menerima Chevrolet Captiva tujuh-seater.
MANCHESTER United fans did a double take on Monday as their heroes arrived for work in a fleet of brand new Chevrolets.
Five Old Trafford favourites turned up in similar models of the vehicle after the club struck a £357m sponsorship with the American car giants.
Chevrolet agreed a deal last year to become United's official shirt sponsor from the 2014-15 season and General Motors offered up their flashy motors to the squad as a gesture of goodwill.
Patrice Evra, Jonny Evans, Antonio Valencia and Tom Cleverley took delivery of their 184mph Chevrolet Camaro whilst Javier Hernandez acquired a Corvette.
Paul Scholes also got a £40,000 Chevrolet - but it was stolen from his driveway soon afterwards when he left the engine running whilst he defrosted the windows.
Last August manager Sir Alex Ferguson warned players under the age of 23 - no matter their standing in the team - should be allowed to order a sporty Chevrolet model.
But he later took delivery of his own Chevrolet - a hybrid Volt which can travel up to 50 miles on its battery power alone, before its back-up petrol engine comes into play.
Chevrolet is currently Manchester United’s Official Automotive Partner and will become the club’s shirt sponsor beginning with the 2014/2015 season.
A number of other staff have also received Chevrolet models as part of the seven-year partnership agreement between the club and General Motors.
These include former World Champion and Manchester United legend Sir Bobby Charlton, who received a seven-seater Chevrolet Captiva
