Serie A new boys Como have announced the signing of high-class centre-back Raphael Varane from Manchester United on a two-year deal with the option to extend for a further season. The
31-year-old Frenchman’s contract has expired after three seasons with the Red Devils, having made 95 appearances in all competitions, winning the FA Cup and Carabao Cup once each. Former
Ligue 1 team Lens, as well as several clubs in the United States and Saudi Arabia, have also been linked. However, Como negotiated and secured the player. In a statement
on Sunday, the club said Varane has signed a contract until 2026 with the option to extend for a further 12 months. http://ufabet999.app He has been unveiled as the new signing of legendary Spanish midfielder Cesc Fabregas and
former Real Madrid player, who brings with him experience in winning Four Champions League titles, three La Liga titles and a Copa del Rey triumph in the process. He has won 93 senior caps and helped lift the 2018 World Cup.
Como are just promoted to Serie B as Serie B runners-up and Varane is the latest in a string of star signings following Pepe Reina, Alberto Moreno and Andrea Belotti.
“I had my doubts about the project here at first but when I saw it I knew straight away that it was special and different to what other clubs were offering,” Varane said in an interview.
“Then we closed the deal. I am very happy and excited. And I want to share my experience playing at a high level and help the club reach the top. “
I met Cesc again, but this time not as an opponent. I like his philosophy and his passion for football. We understand each other very easily. Hopefully we can get good results.”
