​Man Utd defender Varane celebrates France success amid injury scare

Manchester United defender Raphael Varane celebrated France's UEFA Nations League triumph on social media.

The French battled past Belgium in the semi-finals and narrowly defeated Spain in the final to lift the trophy.

Varane and United will be sweating over his fitness, considering he came off after 43 minutes in the final due to a possible injury.

Post-game, Varane uploaded an image of himself with the trophy and wrote: "Champions" on his official Twitter account.

The Frenchman did not reference his injury, which may suggest the problem was minor.
