Raphael Varane’s future at Old Trafford is up in the air.

Manchester United could allow Raphael Varane to leave Old Trafford for the right price in the winter, according to acclaimed transfer expert Fabrizio Romano.

The French defender has dropped down the pecking order under Ten Hag this season, prompting talks of an exit.Pn The Debrief podcast, Romano added that the Red Devils want to sign a new defender in 2024.

“The message from Manchester United on Varane is that it’s a tactical decision. They are very happy with how Harry Maguire is playing.

“Now that Jonny Evans is injured, I’m sure Varane will get more playing time. Of course, if they receive important proposals for Varane, it could be an open situation in the January window,” said Romano.

He continued:
“United will decide on a centre-back signing depending on opportunities, but players like Todibo, an important player for Nice … it’s not easy to sign these players in the January window, so it might have to wait until the summer, but the idea is to bring in an important centre-back in 2024.”

Varane started the last four games in the league from the bench, playing a combined 18 minutes
