As reported by journalist Di Marzio, Raphael Varane is set to completed his tests within the next two days. He is set to have his medical at Manchester after his transfer has been sealed.
The French centre-back sealed his move to Manchester United on a £50m deal. It has been a really quick deal with negotiations on going very quickly for the past four days. Just some minute paperwork is left to be completed and the agreement has been signed.

Varane will sign a four-year contract which will keep him at Old Trafford till 2026. He has an option to extend it to a further one year. The deal is similar to the one that Man United offered Jadon Sancho.
Manchester United’s first bid was rejected by Real Madrid. Thereafter, United increased their bid to £50m which was the target set by Real Madrid.
Raphael Varane will have to follow the covid protocols and will quarantine himself while moving to England. The fans may see him wear the famous Red jersey by the end of this week.
It has been an electrifying week for Manchester United as they signed both Jadon Sancho and Raphael Varane within a span of five days. United has hit a bargain by getting a four-time UCL winner for just £50m.
Great work by John Murtough and his team.
