Since joining Madrid, Varane has succeeded in becoming one of the most successful defenders in the world. How could it not be in 10 years, Varane has presented 18 prestigious titles for Madrid.
In addition to being reliable in guarding defense, Varane also has the ability to assist in attacks when he goes up. Even in the 2020-2021 season, Varane has contributed two goals in 32 appearances for Madrid.
However, recently Varane’s future with Madrid has been tightly speculated. Yes, Varane is said to be planning to finish his career in Madrid, and try new challenges with a new club.
This situation suddenly made a number of clubs that had long been monitoring Varane on alert. Some clubs that are reportedly interested in accommodating the 27-year-old defender include Manchester United, Chelsea, Juventus and Paris Saint-Germain (PSG).
Zidane finally opened his voice regarding the continuation of Varane’s future with Madrid. Yes, Zidane emphasized that Varane was never included in the player that Madrid would release in the near future.
“I don’t think he (Varane) thinks of any other club than Real Madrid. He always said it, he always spoke highly of the club. I think the people are very happy here, ”explained Zidane, as adapted from Marca, Saturday (13/3/2021).
“I only saw him staying here. It’s not just me who wants to keep Varane. He is part of this club, we are really very lucky to bring him to Madrid, “he continued.
“Varane has had a great career, he achieved a lot since he was here. Of course, he will not be sold to another club, be it for me or anyone else, “said the French coach.
