I fell in love with the club, with the fans. You have to play for Man United to understand what that represents,” Varane wrote on social media
Raphael Varane
Raphael Varane announced on Tuesday he will leave Manchester United at the end of the season when his contract expires following a three-year spell at Old Trafford.
The former France defender, 31, arrived at the club from Real Madrid in 2021 for an initial fee of about £34 million ($43 million) and has made 93 appearances, scoring twice. He was part of the team that won the club’s first trophy in six years —the 2023 League Cup. But United have endured a nightmare season, languishing in eighth place in the Premier League with 14 defeats.

Varane, whose United career has been disrupted by injuries, has not played since a 3-4 defeat to Chelsea on April 4. “The first time I went to Old Trafford as a Man United player was insane, the atmosphere was amazing. I fell in love with the club, with the fans. You have to play for Man United to understand what that represents,” Varane wrote on social media.
“Despite the fact we had a difficult season, I’m very positive for the future. The new owners are coming with a clear plan and a great strategy,” the 2018 World Cup winner added.
