Manchester United defender Raphael Varane is awaiting final diagnosis on a hamstring injury threatening his World Cup but early indications are that the problem isn't bad as first feared.
Varane suffered the injury during the second half of Saturday's 1-1 draw with Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.
The France international was visibly distraught as he limped off the field amid fears his hopes of playing in next month's World Cup were over.
