Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho, who managed Varane during his time at Madrid, recently described him as the best young defender in the world, with those quotes reported by the Daily Mail. According to the Daily Express, the Frenchman could even be tempted into a move to the Premier League, having grown frustrated with a lack of playing time in Spain.
