Manchester United close to completing Varane deal

Raphael Varane

Manchester United have agreed a deal to sign France defender Raphael Varane from Real Madrid, according to several British media reports.

Varane had been a longstanding target for United, who last week completed the transfer of England winger Jadon Sancho from German club Borussia Dortmund for a reported 73 million pounds (USD 100m).

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's men are now closing in on the signing of Real centre-back Varane, having agreed a deal worth a reported 34 million pounds rising to 42 million pounds with add-ons. Varane, 28, a 2018 World Cup winner, has one season left on his contract at the Bernabeu.
