Manchester United urged to sign Real Madrid defender Raphael Varane by Wes Brown
Wes Brown has urged Manchester United to sign Real Madrid defender Raphael Varane this summer.The Red Devils are in desperate need of a commanding centre-half after leaking 35 league goals so far this season.3

Raphael Varane is a regular starter at Real Madrid

And despite reportedly having two bids rejected for Napoli rock Kalidou Koulibaly last month, Brown, who won five Premier League titles with United, thinks the club should make Varane their prime transfer target.The 25-year-old starred for France as they won the 2018 World Cup and is considered one of the best defenders in the world.Brown told https://your-promotional-code.co.uk: The dream defender for United would be Rafael Varane.He would cost a lot and it would need to be the right fit for United.3

Wes Brown had a long trophy-laden spell at Manchester United

Its difficult to say as United have a lot of defenders to choose from, and [interim boss Ole Gunnar] Solskjaer will want players to justify their positions on the pitch.Varane had been linked with a move to Old Trafford during Jose Mourinhos tenure.His potential arrival could see him partner Victor Lindelof, who has thrived under Solskjaers guidance.Brown, who made 361 United appearances between 1996 and 2011, said: Lindelof has started to understand what it takes in English football.3

Victor Lindelof has started every league game under interim boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer

It was similar to [Nemanja] Vidic adapting to the English game.Its difficult and different adjusting to the league, and moving to a new country. Its quicker and stronger in certain areas and sometimes it takes time to adjust. I never thought he was bad, but hes started to understand more and taken everything in, you can now see the class coming out.Its a shame United havent been able to find a regular centre-back partnership due to injuries. Theres not been a partnership you can say has taken off yet, where you can see it stick.Solksjaer will try to find out who is the best partnership and the defenders will all be fighting for places, which is good for the team.
