In recent hours, negotiations have sped up for the World Cup-winning defender, who appears Old Trafford bound.
Manchester United are closing in on an agreement to sign Real Madrid defender Raphael Varane, Goal can confirm.
While the two sides were not close to agreeing terms at the start of the week, much work has been done to bridge the gap, with a deal now expected to take place for between €45m (£39/$53m) and €55m (£47m/$65m).
Varane has been one of Man Utd’s top summer transfer priorities since they completed a deal to sign Jadon Sancho from Borussia Dortmund.
