Raphael Varane is in Como. Indeed, it was already there yesterday too, and now there is therefore no longer any doubt that contacts between the thirty-one-year-old French defender and the blue and white club are underway. Varane did not meet with Fabregas, who was still in Sardinia yesterday, he will probably do so in the next few hours.
It is therefore probable that he instead met with the club’s management, also given the presence of Mirwan Suwarso in Como in this period. And from what is said, it seems that his trip to Italy could last a few days, at least the time to carefully evaluate this proposal. Which in our country would not be the only one, there has also been talk of Rome’s interest.
There is definitely no rush to make decisions. Varane leaves Manchester United – where he played the last three seasons after ten years in which he won everything at Real Madrid, including a World Cup with France in 2018, the year in which he also won one of his four victorious Champions League -, there are therefore no agreements to be made with other companies.
The only thing that will weigh on the scales is the player’s decision, who understandably has a very high salary, and at 31 years old still has a good portion of his career ahead of him. Varane’s presence in Como, however, suggests that there is at least the possibility, and the will, to talk about it.
Meanwhile, yesterday Como officially announced the purchase of Alberto Dossena, who signed until 2028. “I have already had the pleasure of meeting the people of the club and the city, but certainly what convinced me most to come here is the project – commented the defender -. The club has very big ambitions, the coach immediately gave me a lot of energy. The director and the owners also made me understand how much faith they have in me, and so I will have to repay it. I can’t wait to get started and meet the rest of the team”.
Cesc Fabregas also spoke about Dossena’s arrival. “It’s important for us, who have just arrived in a new championship, to invest in players who know the category and can compete in Serie A, something that Alberto has demonstrated. He is a strong and competitive player, who we believe has great potential to grow with us.”
