Raphael Varane is one step closer to completing his move to Manchester United as reports claim the defender's visa has been processed. The 28-year-old is also said to be in Manchester self-isolating before taking his medical with the Red Devils ahead of his £42m move to Old Trafford. However, it will be a race against time for Varane to feature in Manchester United's opening Premier League game against Leeds United on August 14. Nevertheless, the centre-back will be a valuable addition to Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side - having won three LaLiga titles and four Champions League crowns. 'He's proved over his whole career what a good person he is first of all, professional and he's won what there is to win.'
