Real Madrid 'still waiting to hear whether Raphael Varane will sign latest contract offer'

Real Madrid are yet to hear from Raphael Varane about their latest contract offer, as the French defender continues to be linked to Manchester United and Chelsea, according to reports.

The French defender has now entered the final year of his contract and Los Blancos need to either sell him this summer or run the risk of losing him on a free in a year's time.

Real do not want to lose another top-class defender this summer after club captain Sergio Ramos quit the club for Paris Saint-Germain, with the potential loss of Varane leaving new signing David Alaba, Eder Militao and Nacho Fernandez as centre-back options.
