Raphael Varane
While Ramos could well prove to be a valuable addition to the Red Devils defence, it’s important to remain that the Spain international is playing sloppy seconds to Raphael Varane.
United have already had a bid for Ramos’s Real Madrid teammate rebuffed this summer—a £110 million joint-bid for the Frenchman and Gareth Bale [Telegraph].
Varane is only 22, yet has already won the Liga BBVA title, the Champions League crown, the Copa del Rey, the Super Cup and the Club World Cup.
He could have been the centrepiece of United’s defence for a decade.
