OYOGist.com has learned that the Red Devils are reportedly weighing up a summer transfer for Real Madrid centre back Raphael Varane.
Manchester United backline has come under increased criticism recently, and while Manchester United brought in Brazil International Alex Telles from FC Porto on deadline day, Manchester United’s failed to land a centre-defender in the summer transfer market.
With the powers-that-be at Old Trafford now looking ahead to future windows, Spanish outlet Mundo Deportivo reports that Manchester United are keeping a close tabs on developments surrounding Raphael Varane’s deal situation at the Santiago Bernabeu.
Indeed, the World Cup-winning France International is out of contract with Real Madrid in 2022 and is reportedly yet to enter talks over a renewal, with Manchester United therefore hoping to strike a cut-price transfer for Raphael Varane next summer.
However, with the likes of Marcos Rojo and Phil Jones still on the books at Manchester United, the Red Devils would most likely have to offload before they can buy.
Raphael Varane has made 323 outings for Real Madrid since joining from Lens in year 2011, winning 3 La Liga titles and 4 Uefa Champions Leagues in that time.
