'We already had busy schedules': Varane says player welfare must be considered after Euro 2020 rescheduled

Raphael Varane says he hopes football’s decision-makers keep players’ welfare in mind as they try to set out a new calendar for football.

The France international was speaking about the postponed European Championships, which are now due to take place next summer.
