Though it is not confirmed yet, the centre-back is likely to head out the exit door at Real Madrid this summer as the 28-year-old has won everything possible with the club in his glorious 10-year career at the Spanish capital.
With only a year to go in his contract, if Varane does not renew, he will be sold this summer and Manchester United are said to be the frontrunners to sign him, given that the Red Devils are desperate to find an able defender to pair with Harry Maguire.
Mirror understands that an agreement over ‘personal terms’ has been reached between Varane and United as the former Premier League champions have agreed to pay the player €12 million per year as compared to the €7 million per year that Madrid were offering. Italian football journalist Fabrizio Romano also confirmed these rumours.
Manchester United are indeed interested in signing the 28-year-old but no official bid has been made yet. The Los Blancos are said to have placed a €55 million (including add-ons) price tag on their defender, and numerous sources have understood that have made a €45 million bid and have been shot down by the Spanish giants.
For now, United are said to be the only club interested in signing the 28-year-old, but it is only a matter of time before other clubs step into the ring. The player is said to be interested in a new challenge, but reaching an agreement with Real over the sale of the player is ‘not going to be easy.
The Los Blancos are looking to launch a historic bid for Kylian Mbappe this summer as the Frenchman has been linked with a move to the Santiago Bernabeu for a long time, and the player himself is said to be interested in making a move to Spain.
