Manchester United made a final decision with Raphael Varane and these are the details

During this season Manchester United have had many problems. Several important players of the squad suffered injuries that prevented them from being part of the team in crucial moments of Premier League and Champions League, and that affected the performance of The Red Devils, who were eliminated in the European tournament and are far away from the top positions in the English league standings.

One of the sectors of the field in which they have had more problems is the defense. During the season coach Erik Ten Hag had to change many times the centre-backs and full-backs. Lisandro Martinez, one of the stars of the team, had to undergo surgery for a foot injury and was off the field for a long time. In addition, Harry Maguire has also had physical problems.

Therefore, the Dutch manager had to give opportunities to Raphael Varane, Victor Lindelof, Johnny Evans and even Luke Shaw as a centre-back. These constant changes complicated the team's performance and prevented them from having defensive solidity. And dissatisfaction with the performances of some of them grew more and more.

With this scenario, for some weeks there were speculations in social media, newspapers and TV shows about the possible departure of Raphael Varane. The French defender had lost prominence in the team, while it was rumored that Real Madrid were interested in signing him to replace the injured Eder Militao and David Alaba. Now, however, things seem to have changed.

What will happen to him?

According to several English media, Varane's performances in recent games against Liverpool, Aston Villa and Nottingham Forest were convincing. In addition, injuries to Maguire, Lindelof and Martinez make it necessary for the French defender to stay. That is why Manchester United have decided that they will not let him leave during the January transfer window.
