Rumoured Raphael Varane

[CurlyHairLikeLuiz 1,625]

Like you said, it is crazy to pay that amount of money for a defender.

The only reason for you to pay that kind of money is for a player who can decide a match almost by himself i.e if there is another hazard out there, I have no problem shelling out that kind of money.

pff a quick CB would be an excellent investment. Enabling us to play a high line would improve our game by leaps and bounds. There is no powerhouse in Europe with as slow a backline as Iva-Cahill-Terry-Azpi. The only reason Barca get away with it is because coaches are cowardly in their tactics towards them and their front 3 can exert such pressure on a back line. Especially one such as ours, which is too slow. and the fact Iva is bombing forwards so much just makes things worse. The only reason we've done well in the league is because Matic is so good at what he does. If we were looking at Mikel as first choice we'd probably be calling for Terry and Cahill's heads, because all of the pressure would be on those two as opposed to being partially absorbed in midfield, and that Oscar and Willian put in a shift defensively.

interesting accounting if we keep him for 30 years its only £2 m a year plus his wages of course ,

If you know how FFP works then you'll know the point I was trying to make.

Ladies and Gents, first post here!!

I so wish we could get Varane. We would've gotten him too if it weren't for the freak injury crisis Madrid are going through right now. If Madrid had their full XI fit, Varane would've spent the end of season on the bench, convincing him to move elsewhere. After the performance he put against AM, Real aren't going to sell and Varane will believe he has a chance to cement his place in XI.

Unless Mou adds a personal touch like he did with Cesc, I can't see him coming. Even then RM won't be willing to sell, I think.

The signing of Varane is a personal issue for Jose. He is his franchise player. I think Jose has already convinced Varane to come with us.

One week ago He spoke about his situation at Real Madrid when a reporter asked if he would continue in Real Madrid next season, and Varane replied that he only thinks this season with a straight face.

Zouma - Varane is our future

Although there is also the possibility of putting Varane as Right-Back with Zouma - Laporte as Centre-backs.

Zouma Laporte

Don't get Varane because Madrid will use that money for Pogba. Let him stay on their bench tbh.

If Madrid want to buy Pogba they will whether we buy Varane or not. What they would hypothetically do with the money we'd pay for Varane should be the least of our concerns.

Why did he sign a new contract at RM then? Can't see him go anywhere in the next 2 years.

Why did he sign a new contract at RM then? Can't see him go anywhere in the next 2 years.

To earn more money ? Because when he first signed he was 18 years old boy with only one season of senior football and without big hype around him. His second contract was signed when he already played in the World Cup, in El Classico, in the Champions League final. I think that one is pretty clear.

Signing new contract seriously doesn't mean that much. And even if Varane wouldn't sign the new one, he would still have 2 more years of his old deal.

He's not gonna create a havoc to set up his departure but rather makes himself available in the summer. That's where Chelsea are stepping up with their pursuit.

The players have now more power in their hands, if they want to go, they go with the money going the other way.

Hi friend!

I totally agree with the words of Blue Colored Sky.

It is a very important a factor to believe that Varane will leave Real Madrid this summer: Sergio Ramos and Pepe are, right now, the players most beloved by the fans of Real Madrid and for the president Perez, for the players, for Ancelotti. Right now they are the leaders of Real Madrid.

And for the president Florentino Perez right now Pepe is His leader on the team.

If everything remains the same next season Pepe and Ramos will be the partner of Centre-Backs for Real Madrid because both the president, as Ancelotti, players, and especially fans of Real Madrid are totally in love with Ramos and Pepe.

Another problem: CRISTIANO RONALDO. He has energetically asked for the renewal of the contract of Pepe and Ramos because they are good friends. Ronaldo has a lot power in Real Madrid.

This is the the problem of Varane. If he continues at Real Madrid it is more likely that his situation remains the same next season, a season where the Euro is played in his country...

And Varane needs to play every week to continue his spectacular progression.

And I think Jose has already convinced Varane completely to come with us.

Believe me, we have many options to sign Varane.

I am afraid RM don't need to sell to fund purchases unlike us. Even if they splash 200m this transfer window, they will still be well within FFP regulations because of their crazy revenue.

But it is Varane who is tired of having a secondary role at Real Madrid. Is Varane who wants a change.

If Pepe and Sergio Ramos are charismatic leaders Real Madrid next season and they always play in the starting eleven I think Varane will not accept this role even one minute more.

Pepe and Ramos are close friends of Casillas, and the same people / pseudo journalists who strongly defended Casillas against Mourinho are the same who defend Pepe and Ramos. Ancelotti will not dare to put on the bench none of them for not living the same lynching
that Jose suffered in Madrid.

Agreed. If not for Casillas turning the players against Mou he would still be there. Ramos, Casillas and (later) Pepe and Ronaldo. They like Ancelotti because he's too spineless to drop any of them. I think Varane will move.

Terrible game, as good as he is shows anyone can still have a bad game these days.

[supporter 3,088]

His performance today is good news for us.

With today's result Real Madrid will have to change their approach and most likely is that Sergio Ramos and Pepe will be the Centre-Backs of Real Madrid next week against Juventus at Bernabeu.

That will anger Varane and he will play a few games until the end of the season (football fiction hahaha ) and the price will not go up.

Lot of imagination on my part, but if this happens his signing is closer.

Today he has not had a good game, but this guy is a prodigy.

[BlueLyon 9,359]

That moment when people hope he will be as shit as possible in Real so we have more chance to sign him
