Manchester United are looking for more reinforcements to help the club win their dream Premier League title after the transfer of Jadon Sancho. One of them could be Real Madrid stopper Raphaël Varane.
After signing their priority Jadon Sancho, the English club will now focus on strengthening their back line. The club is considering signing up to two stoppers. Varane, however, is a clear priority.
the 28-year-old stopper is looking for a new challenge after 10 years at Real. According to some reports, the four-time Champions League winner has already vouched that he wants to join the Red Devils.
The problem will surely not be in setting the contract terms between Varane and Manchester United. On the contrary, it will be more difficult to reach an agreement between the two clubs. It is unlikely to be a quick and easy affair.
Even though Varane is only on a one-year contract at Los Blancos, the club is demanding up to €93 million for their player. Therefore, the option of the Frenchman coming to United for free is also in play. Of course, after his contract expires.
Real are interested in extending his contract, but Varane’s salary seems too low compared to what the biggest stars are taking at the same club.
Although the clubs have not yet agreed on a specific sum, sources say that his departure from the Spanish capital is inevitable.
