Raphael Varane’s transfer cost United approx £42m excluding add ons. He will sign a five years contract with an option to extend for another year.
Varane bid farewell to his Real Madrid fans and will now start a new chapter in the Premier League. An exciting new challenge awaits for him after his star-studded trophy cabinet with Real Madrid.
Manchester United have been pretty quick this summer and have been able to wrap up deals for both Jadon Sancho and Raphael Varane within a span of seven days. Varane’s move didn’t take much time and just the final step is left to be completed.
He will become United’s third summer signing after Tom Heaton and Sancho. More to come from Fabrizio Romano as Solksjaer and Manchester United will set to be busier in August as they face a big challenge to sign a new midfielder this summer.
Raphael Varane and Harry Maguire partnership is already looking very frightening on paper.
