Hi Ed002,
Went through one of your comments in the Chelsea page that one club will make a huge push for Varane.

Is it United?

Thanks in advance.

{Ed002's Note - Yes, but there is interest from elsewhere as well.}

Wow. Thanks for the info Ed.

I believe Varane would hugely transform our defense similar to what Dias and VVD have done.

Surely they won't allow Varane to leave aswell as Ramos?

I hope we sign Varane. Appreciate he's had some injury problems and we don't want a player who misses games, however, he's a fantastic defender and could help turn our central defence from a weakness to a strength in our side.

Not only is he individually a very good player but he would compliment Maguire's lack of pace.

Maybe we could swap him for pogba?

Varane will be my first choice and he will be the first proper defender since the Rio and Vidic days.

Varane would add 12 points to us.

Swap for Pogba would genuinely be a brilliant deal. Gets rid of a problem for United and brings in a massive upgrade at CB.

Hey ed, does this mean that Pau Torres is someone that United aren't looking at?

{Ed002's Note - No.}

Joel Glazer said the club would invest this year. Sancho and Varane alone would be huge.

If we where to get Kane or Ronaldo and DM that would be a dream

There'll be no excuses for Ole next year.

As things stand i think its either Varane or Pau Torres. If there is a chance we get both of them i would be over the moon.

Is Torres all that or do we just get sucked in by the usual names. He didn’t look like an upgrade. Varane on the other hand would be a Rolls Royce in a sidestreet banger auction. Can’t see him fancying it, Chelsea more like.

So good to see we are linked with Varane and Torres. We need both. That’s the dream though. One massively improves us though.

Imagine a defence of Varane and Torres, if only that was a reality and not a drew.

Apparently Madrid want 80m we offered 50m…for once I’ll side with us on this, no way should we pay that when he’s got 1 year left on his contract. Madrid always see us coming don’t they!

Torres is a very good reader of the game Spenno. Maybe great. He has a good left foot but he is not so strong and for his height he is not great in the air. He is a bit like our own Lindelof but taller. If he comes here he must strength his core.
He would be the ideal defender if the club didn't make the huge mistake with Maguire. He can clearly play the Maguire role much much better than him and compared with a player like Varane would make things better.

I guess it comes down to what someone wants to pay but I think 50 mill for Varane is fair opening offer.


17.) 18 Jun 2021

It seems more like a closing offer boyfrom. He is 28-29, he has a year left in his contract and wants to leave. Taking all this into consideration 50 million pounds is a very bug offer.

{Ed077's Note - What does a "very bug offer" mean??;-P

Know what you are saying Herrera, but weeks ago I thought all this tabloid talk of him being available for 35-40 mill was daft. Not my money but i'd of gone to 50 mill and I think our offer of 50 mill if true plus maybe 3-4 mill linked to trophies won would be as high as we should go.

Varane has apparently been trying to leave Madrid since 2017 and yet he is still there. Now Ramos has gone, expect Varane's contract to be extended.

There is no way Man United bid anywhere near £50 million for Varane.

Real Madrid don't let their players leave on the cheap and we either should decide to pay up or move on to alternate options and not let this drag on just like Sancho.
