Varane to leave Manchester United at the end of season

Manchester United have confirmed Raphael Varane will leave the club as a free agent at the end of the season.

Varane joined the Red Devils from Real Madrid for an initial fee of about £34m three seasons ago and has made 93 appearances since his arrival.

The 31-year-old, as part of his three seasons with United, won the Carabao Cup in 2023.

"Everybody at United thanks Rapha for his service and wishes him well for the future," said a United statement.

The former France international also shared a post on his social media handles announcing his imminent departure from the club.

Varane is set to officially say his goodbyes to the club in their final home game of the season on Wednesday, May 15, when they play Newcastle United at Old Trafford.

Varane has struggled with injuries during his time at the club with just 16 Premier League appearances under his belt this season.

He has also been on the sidelines since United's 4-3 defeat to Chelsea last month.
