The Frenchman has had a tough season with the Red Devils and he recently made his return to the starting line-up after seven weeks.

Varane delivered a defensive masterclass against Liverpool on the road and just days later, he is being linked with a return to Madrid.

Los Blancos suffered a huge setback at the beginning of the season with Eder Militao requiring a surgery for a serious knee ligament injury.

The Brazilian has been joined in the treatment room by David Alaba . The Austrian could miss the rest of the campaign with his knee issue.

As a result, the club are looking for a reliable and cheap option in January and Varane has been identified as one of the possible targets.

It is claimed that United could look to sell him for €20m. His current deal expires next summer but United can extend it for 12 months.
