Real Madrid defender Raphael Varane has been linked with a move away from Santiago Bernabeu this summer.
The player is in the final year of his contract with the Spanish club, and he has not signed an extension yet.
Varane’s future at Real Madrid is likely to be decided after the European Championships, but it is believed that Manchester United are keen on signing the French international.
Real Madrid are already planning for life without the Frenchman, and they’re looking at potential replacements.
Leicester City defender Wesley Fofana is thought to be on Real Madrid’s wish list this summer as a potential replacement for Varane
It will be interesting to see if they can lure the young Frenchman to Santiago Bernabeu in the coming months.
Fofana has been outstanding for Leicester since joining the club at the start of last season, and he has developed into one of the most exciting young defenders in the Premier League.
There is no doubt that the former St Etienne defender is a prodigious talent who has a big future ahead of him, and he could prove to be a quality long term acquisition for Real Madrid.
The young defender just completed his first season with Leicester, and the Premier League side are unlikely to sell him anytime soon.
The French defender has a long term contract with the Foxes, and they are under no pressure to cash in on him.
Real Madrid will probably have to pay way over the odds to bring Leicester to the negotiating table this summer.
