Man United star Varane out for few weeks, could miss crucial games

Manchester United star defender Raphael Varane has been ruled out for a few weeks with a groin injury picked up on international duty.

The France international went off injured during the Nations League final win against Spain on Sunday.

The 28-year-old has started six of United’s games this season after signing from Real Madrid in August.

“Raphael Varane sustained a groin muscle injury in the Nations League final and has commenced rehabilitation at the club,” United said in a statement.

“He will be out for a few weeks.”

United have games coming up against Liverpool, Tottenham and Manchester City and play Atalanta in the Champions League.

The Red Devils are next in action this Saturday when they travel to Leicester City in the Premier League.
