Manchester United are in advanced talks with a player that has been likened to Nemanja Vidic.
As per Sky Sports Germany, United will listen to offers for Raphael Varane in January after deciding to cash in on the defender.
The Frenchman, who joined United from Real Madrid in a £40million deal in 2021, has lost his starting place in Erik ten Hag’s side this season, despite an injury to centre-back partner Lisandro Martinez.
Varane, a World Cup winner, has been overlooked in favour of Harry Maguire, Jonny Evans and Victor Lindelof this term.
Bayern Munich are said to be keen on signing the former Real and Lens star, who is among the highest earners at Old Trafford.
However, Sky Sports Germany claims the Bundesliga giants feel a deal is unrealistic despite United being open to letting Varane go.
Meanwhile, Romanian publication ProSport has reported that United are in advanced talks to sign Genoa defender Radu Dragusin, possibly as a replacement for Varane.
