PSG move to beat Man Utd for Real Madrid defender Raphael Varane

PSG have made a move for Real Madrid defender Raphael Varane.

The centre back has a year left on his contract at Real Madrid and was an instrumental part of Los Blancos' defence this season as they shipped just 28 goals despite just failing to defend their league title.

However, he is yet to sign a new deal after turning down a two-year offer and as a consequence, Real are willing to sell the 28-year-old this summer, with PSG the latest team to enquire about his services, says Marca.

Varane's representatives are also set to speak to Manchester United as the battle for his signature intensifies, with the player unhappy that Real chose to negotiate with Luka Modric, Lucas Vazquez and Ramos before him and said to prefer a move to England over a return to his homeland despite PSG's interest.

Varane's France face Portugal in their final Group F game on Wednesday.
