Manchester United's Raphael Varane Struggles with Injuries, Faces Uncertain Future

Manager Erik ten Hag denies rift with Varane, as the club reportedly prepares for his potential departure and scouts for replacements.

Raphael Varane, Manchester United's defender, has been struggling with injuries and has fallen down the pecking order at the club. He has started just one of United's last eight games.
Varane's absence from the team is due to stiff competition for places, according to Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag, who dismissed reports of a rift with the defender.
Varane, who joined Manchester United in 2021 for £35 million, has had a very mixed two years with the club. He has missed 38 games for both club and country due to injuries.
Manchester United are reportedly preparing to move Varane on, with the most likely destination being Saudi Arabia. The club is currently looking for suitable replacements.
Manchester United's Jadon Sancho is also set to exit Old Trafford either in January or the summer. Juventus are working to sign him on loan until the end of the season.
