Varane to leave Man Utd at end of season

Manchester United defender Raphael Varane will leave the club when his contract runs out at the end of the season.

The 31-year-old joined the Old Trafford side from Real Madrid in summer 2021 for an initial fee of about £34m and has made 93 appearances.

The former France international helped United win the Carabao Cup in 2023 when manager Erik ten Hag's side beat Newcastle United in the final.

"Everybody at United thanks Rapha for his service and wishes him well for the future," said a United statement., external
