Rumoured Raphael Varane

[LAB 1,030]

If zidane leaves Madrid, that helps our hopes of keeping Eden. Here

I think he might leave now to get experience as a manager in a minor team, but he will come back to coach RM for sure at some point.

Good young player.

If we wanted to improve over what we have immediately though, then I'd rather go for Diego Godin... Along with Ramos, best defenders in champions IMO.

Mourinho is also making room for a possible bid for Varane or Mangala by allowing Tomas Kalas to join Cologne on loan. (Independent) #CFC

Varane has confirmed Chelsea’s interest but will not discuss his future further until after the World Cup (Independent) #CFC #RMCF

[Y123CFC 69]

He has been absolutely class in every game this World Cup. And he's only 21, just think how good he will become

Jose, you know what to do

[Magic Lamps 11,462]

I hope this transfer is off now. he was Hummels's bitch yesterday.

[Rom2013 446]

Two years ago he was a lot better than Pepe and Ramos, maybe the best in the world with19 or 20 years old.

I don't know how he is right now, he almost didn't play in Madrid so I think it's hard to say if he recovered totally

He was amazing, by far the best young CB I've ever seen.

[bababoom 4,478]

He just needs to add more muscle mass, not a big deal.

[Sidzeret 2,257]

Nominated for the Best young player at the World cup.

Varane seeks clarity

Varane seeks clarity

If there was one defender we could sign to replace JT (long term) it would definitely be Varane.

[Y123CFC 69]

Jose loves Varane, Varane loves Jose

IF he did want to leave Madrid, I think we would have a good chance of getting him

[Beepu 1,714]

Would be my first choice for a CB signing.

[RoyalBlues 4,050]

Shame he is at Real, if not it will be a lot more easier.

Would be a dream to get Varane i personally rate him very high.

We might have a chance doesn't he have a release clause?

I mean he is already in a big club, with a decent wage. It is more difficult to attract him to leave.

I have no doubt he would choose Mourinho over Real but that bloody cock@#$er Zidane does all he can to keep him there.

It's more than Mourinho v Real. It's incredibly difficult for Varane himself is Carlo, for example, asked him what he wants to do.

Real Madrid and Chelsea aren't on different levels for him. Though Real Madrid are current European Champions he'll know Chelsea are always competing and go further than most.

Money won't be an incentive because I can imagine he already earns a bucket load. He'll look at where he'll play and be settled more.. Carlo is a good man manager, he will not need Zidane even, if he guarantees Varane a starting role then Chelsea are powerless.

As for a buyout, this kid is probably one of the best young players in the world and they would have probably priced that as appropriate.

Also, I know it's probably nothing but he speaks fluent English more or less, and so if he came to England he could settle in quickly.

Hasn't Zidane left Madrid as assistant coach now anyway? I read that he is now in charge of their reserves or youth or something

But I'm sure Jose would know about his release clause and Madrid might need to sell in order to fund their transfers this year.. Kroos more or less done, but they have been linked with James, Falcao etc
