Already a big blow for Raphaël Varane. On the occasion of his first official match with Côme, which he joined this summer free of any contract after his departure from Manchester United, the 31-year-old French defender came off after only 23 minutes of play.
Regularly injured in recent seasons, the 2018 world champion was forced to give up his place prematurely to Edoardo Goldaniga due to pain in his left adductor.
Varane out against Juve?
For the moment, the team led by Cesc Fabregas, promoted to Serie A, has not communicated on the injury of its French defender. However, he could miss the resumption of the championship on August 19, against Juventus Turin.
In the meantime, without him, Como lost at the end of the penalty shootout against Sampdoria, in their 32e Italian Cup final, this Sunday (1-1, 4-3 tab).
