Manchester United defender Raphael Varane has confirmed that he will be leaving the club at the end of the season when his contract expires. The French international joined United from Real Madrid in 2021 and has since made 93 appearances for the club.
Varane, who has been hampered by injuries during his time at Old Trafford, expressed his gratitude to the supporters and the club, describing his experience as “amazing” and emphasizing the special atmosphere at Old Trafford. Despite the challenges faced this season, Varane remains positive about the future of the club, citing the clear plan and strategy outlined by the new owners.
United acknowledged Varane’s contribution to the team, praising his “great deal of class and experience” and highlighting his solid performances at the heart of the defense. However, the club’s disappointing season, marked by numerous defeats and a low league position, suggests a challenging period ahead for the team.
As Varane prepares to depart, United will look to finish the season on a high note, with remaining fixtures in the Premier League and the upcoming FA Cup final against Manchester City.
