Harry Maguire is 'proof' that Raphael Varane can turn his Manchester United career around, with the Frenchman 'accepting' the fact he's been dropped for tactical reasons.
The World Cup winner has started on the bench in the last five games, with Ten Hag preferring Jonny Evans alongside Maguire at the centre of defence.
While Varane is understood to have been left frustrated at being benched for the Manchester derby defeat to City, the Athletic report that the Frenchman has now 'accepted' being out of the side.
One of the reasons pointed out for that is that dropping out of favour is not the end of the road under Erik ten Hag.
