Rumoured Raphael Varane

[CurlyHairLikeLuiz 1,625]

Strategically Varane must be our main objective for next summer market.

With Varane we would have a TOP Centre-back for the next 12 years. Their skills and mindset are perfect.

If I could choose a signing that would be the Varane, ahead of anyone.

Varane and Zouma would be a couple of centre-backs for 12 years. They would complement perfectly and they are 100% Jose`s players.

Because Real Madrid would sell Varane ?. Business (business is business). The Real Madrid is not a football club, is a company that each year makes two or three very commercial signings to earn more money.

Varane is not a player that generates money. It is a shy and humble guy who only generates football.

Maybe David Luiz go this summer to Real Madrid. He is the type of player who likes Florentino Perez (Real Madrid president), mediatic and commercial star. And they will renew Sergio Ramos and Pepe.

Varane will not want to be the fourth option. At Real Madrid do not think about the future, only the present.

For me the signing of Varane must be our main objective.

Agree, £30, 40m here would be money well spent.

Although maybe Pogba as well

Having said that,how does he stack up against Kalas? (stupid question?) If we buy him, we will almost certainly end his career here.

[manpe 10,861]

Said a few times that Varane would be a dream signing but why would Madrid sell? They don't need the money and he can be their main CB for the next decade. But then they sold Di Maria who was important for them, you never know with Madrid.

Real change attacking flair players every year for big money, it's no surprise when they sell players like Di Maria to accomodate new shiny flavour of the month players. Defence is the only position that has stayed fairly stable over the years and I doubt they will look to bury big money in there, as that doesn't make them more "attractive". If Real had any sense, they would drop that disgrace of a football player Pepe sooner rather than later and promote Varane to full-time starter to keep hold of him.

I'm afraid acquiring Varane will be nearly impossible, but as you said, in football you never know.

Hi!

I believe that the future of Pogba could be linked to Varane. They are his best friends, and probably they want to be together.

In addition there is the factor of Euro which is celebrated in France in 2016. This could be decisive in the transfer of Varane and Pogba.

If they were Pogba and Varane, the national team of France would be so happy because we we would have to Zouma - Varane - Pogba together playing every week and would come to them to prepare together Euro and with Jose Mourinho. All happy

Regarding Kallas, I think we will sell Cahill this summer. With John Terry (c), Zouma, and probably they Varane Ivanovic, Cahill would not have space in our team and maybe we can get money for it (10/20 million). As players like Kallas or Omeruo could become part of our first team as 3rd or 4th center-back. I have great confidence in him.

The central the 2015 season - 2016 would be: 1. John Terry. 2. Varane. 3. Zouma. 4. Kallas or Omeruo. 5. Ivanovic (centre-back for emergency situations).

Step by step Jose will go giving way to young boys to renew our team.

Hi!

Yes, it really seems incredible that Real Madrid will sell Varane, but Real Madrid is accustomed to doing things surrealistic.

They need to make one or two big signings per year to maintain their project in which they prioritize marketing and money than football.

If we look at their team, they have to Bale, Cristiano Ronaldo and Benzema as strikers and Modric, Kross, Isco and James as midfielders.

Most likely they sell Bale this summer, but probably they will sign Reus in the case of selling Bale.

So they are not likely to sign attacking players, so a signing David Luiz, a great player mediatico and having an impact in terms of advertising quite high, could be a good opportunity for Real Madrid to continue with his project of the "Galacticos" with a Centre-Back as David Luiz (Galactico Centre-Back).

This is the hope to which I hold myself to believe in signing Varane by Chelsea. If Real Madrid record to David Luiz, Varane will not want to remain the 3rd or 4th core, because Sergio Ramos Real Madrid Pepe is untouchable and will probably renew. So Varane will seek an exit to take minutes to continue his evolution as a player.

I hope you're more correct in this case than in Messi's

[supporter 3,088]

I also hope so!

Although I still trust in the signing of Messi. Now Neymar is the star of Barcelona, and perhaps now be easier for Barcelona sell a player like Messi because they have already found another star that replaces him.

(Barcelona right now is a pot to explode. This week the Spanish justice has accused its new president and at the same club for tax fraud. Right now anything could happen).

But I think the union between Mourinho and Varane is too much bigger. If there is a possibility ... Jose will be prepared.

I wish I was not wrong about my feelings about the signing of Varane. He would be the perfect signing for us.

Has David Luiz been linked with Madrid?

[supporter 3,088]

Has David Luiz been linked with Madrid?

Yes, in Spain many newspapers (some reliable) claim that David Luiz could end up at Real Madrid this summer. They say it is a priority objective of Florentino Perez (Real Madrid president). They say it's their annual caprice.

Varane or John Stones. My choices if we should be buying a new CB. But with John Terry staying, I think that we would not be getting a new World Class centre back.

[BlueLyon 9,359]

Just checked this comparison between Zouma and Varane

http://www.squawka.com/comparison-matrix#premier_league/2014/2015/kurt_zouma/126/126/1419/0/p|la_liga/2014/2015/raphael_varane/136/136/1851/0/p#defence_score/successful_passes/tackles_won/tackles_lost/aerial_duels_won/aerial_duels_won_%/fouls_committed/interceptions/blocks/clearances/defensive_errors#90

How can Zouma have better overall defence score if Varane beats him by almost everything (tackles, jumps, blocks, clearances etc). How squawka ratings even work?

[obiwan92 217]

Varane and Pogba and we hit another level, guarantee.

Since when has Neymar taken over Messi's role as 'the star' of Barcelona? Neymar, no matter how many goals he scores, will never been on the same level as Lionel Messi, who quite frankly has looked like to have found his best form this season. Messi will never leave Barcelona unless for Newell's. I can almost gurantee that.

Hi!

I did not say that Neymar is already at the level of Messi: : Probably no player in the history of football will have the level of Messi. And no one will have his role.

What I pretended to say is that the big problem for Barcelona, if they thought of selling Messi this summer, was explaining to fans of Barcelona as they were selling Messi without a world star who can be the successor of Messi in the future.

Now Neymar is on track to finish La Liga by making 30 goals at the end of the season. Obviously these statistics are insignificant than the 40/50 Messi goals each year.

What pretended to say is that, in the event that Messi wants to leave Barcelona this summer, Barcelona could offer its followers to Neymar as its next global superstar. Even in terms of advertising, they can change the number of Neymar, Neymar and happen to have the number 10

of Messi.

They did that with Ronaldinho and Messi in the past.

Anyway, I think that if Messi wants to leave Barcelona this summer one in Barcelona will be able to stop if you have a proper offer from another club.

Players play where they want. The decision of Messi will be definitive.

Regards.

Thanks for making that clearer, but I don't think Messi will leave Barca any time soon. Even as a CF or winger, he could still play in that role until his mid 30's or even be dropped to an attacking midfielder due to his vision and awareness of the game. To be honest, some may consider a higher chance of Neymar leaving Barca before Messi does, and I am one of those believers.

[termninja 5,290]

Considering Courtois is doing really well and Cech will look to leave, it would be a good deal if we could bring Varane for Cech + cash. Petr doesn't stay in PL, Carlo knows him and Real are looking for a GK. Win win for both.

But Mourinho should have more freedom in the summer, when he is expected to try to sign £30m-rated central defender Raphael Varane from Real Madrid and will also attempt to add another midfielder and forward to his squad.

Hi!

And precisely today in Spain reports say that Pepe will renew his contract until 2018 with Real Madrid.

If Pepe renews his contract with Real Madrid ... Probably Varane will force his transfer this summer.

Next year's Euro 2016 held in France and Varane is now the captain of France. But if Varane not play with Real Madrid maybe that will complicate your situation with the national team of France.

Varane will not want to be the third Centre-Back of Real Madrid.

Varane has everything, absolutely everything. He and Zouma are 100% Mourinho's players. They would give all for Jose.

I'm sure Varane will be our player next season.

Regards.
