Little used at Manchester United this season, Raphaël Varane would have several exit options this winter.
The season of Raphaël Varane has taken a rather delicate turn for several weeks. Holder last year and at the start of the season Manchester United, the former French international gradually lost his place to Harry Maguire, Victor Lindelöf or even Johnny Evans. Sunday in Liverpool, the former Lensois had his first start in the Premier League since the end of September, a downgrade which hurts despite a good performance at Anfield.
A return to Real?
And who could make him think about his future. Being listed among the Red Devils’ unwanted players, the 2018 world champion should be attentive to clubs interested in his situation during the winter transfer window, and there should be some. According to information from the Cadena COPETHE real Madrid would consider bringing back his former defender to compensate for the long-term absence of David Alaba, injured in the knee. While his contract expires in 2024 (he has an additional year upon meeting certain conditions), Varane would also be in the sights of clubs in Saudi Arabia.
