Raphael Varane's representatives 'hope to open negotiations over a Manchester United move THIS WEEK' after defender turned down a new Real Madrid contract

Raphael Varane and his representatives will reportedly look to begin negotiations with Manchester United this week as the defender looks to seal a move to Old Trafford.

The defender rejected Real Madrid's offer of a two-year extension to his contract, which has 12 months remaining, and is set on leaving the LaLiga club after 10 years in Spain.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side are one of the main teams interested in signing the 28-year-old this summer and The Mirror report that Varane's agents are hoping to meet with United this week.
