EPL: Man United Star, Varane In Shock Return To Real Madrid

Meanwhile, there are speculations that French professional footballer and Manchester United defender, Raphael Varane may make a surprising return to Real Madrid.

Naija News recalls that Varane had recently joined United in the summer of 2021 after spending a decade with the La Liga giants.

However, Real Madrid is currently facing a defensive injury crisis, with David Alaba undergoing surgery for a ruptured ACL in his left knee and Eder Militao still recovering from his ACL tear in August.

As a result, the team is left with only Antonio Rudiger and Nacho as the available central defenders. Real Madrid may consider bringing Varane back to address their injury woes in light of this situation.

While at the Santiago Bernabeu, Varane lifted 18 trophies, including four Champions Leagues.
