After the departure of Sergio Ramos, the next that Real Madrid can leave ands Varane. The central defender ends his contract in 2022 and the white club does not want another soap opera like Ramos', much less Varane leaving for free next year. The Frenchman already has Real Madrid's renewal offer on the table, which is waiting for Varane's response, which, for the moment, does not arrive.
The white club is very clear that if Varane does not give that answer shortly, he will place him on the market, aware that he is one of the players for whom he can get the most money in this summer market: around 60 million euros.
Alaba, Militao and Nacho They are the centrals that right now are entering Real Madrid's plans while waiting for Varane. If the French finally leaves, the white club contemplates two options. The first, not to sign anyone and stay with Vallejo who has returned from his assignment at Granada.
The other option is to go to the market to sign a central defender. Kooundé, from Sevilla, is the first on the list of centrals that Real Madrid wants. The 22-year-old has a contract with Sevilla until 2024 and his termination clause is 80 million euros. The Andalusian club already rejected an offer last year of 55 million from City and its intention is for Koundé to renew with Sevilla.
Behind Koundé is Pau Torres, from Villarreal and some rumors point to Laporte as another of the centrals who are in the sights of Real Madrid if Varane ends up leaving this summer.
