The midfielder's jovial nature has put the defender at ease since his arrival from Real Madrid in August
Raphael Varane says France team-mate Paul Pogba has played an important role in the defender's adaptation to life at Manchester United.
Varane joined United in a £40 million ($55m) move from Real Madrid in August.
The 28-year-old has slotted into the heart of the defence alongside Harry Maguire in United's last two Premier League matches and immediately impressed manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
