Manchester United growing in confidence over Varane deal

The Real Madrid defender is a priority target for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer as he looks to strengthen his back line ahead of the new campaign

Manchester United are growing confident a deal can be agreed to sign Real Madrid defender Raphael Varane after positive talks over the weekend.

The centre-back is a priority target for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer as he looks to strengthen his back line and Goal understands there were positive talks over personal terms and a transfer fee over the last few days.

Should the France international sign he would become the second major signing of the summer for United after they landed Jadon Sancho from Borussia Dortmund.
