Raphael Varane has officially joined Como on a two-year contract, with an option to extend for an additional season. This move comes after Varane's contract with Manchester United expired, allowing him to make the switch as a free agent.
Varane, a highly experienced 31-year-old French defender, will be managed by Cesc Fabregas at Como. Fabregas, who has been pivotal in securing Varane's signature, is looking to harness the defender's extensive experience to strengthen the team's backline. This signing is particularly significant for Como, a club that has seen substantial changes since its promotion to Serie A.
The addition of Varane comes as part of Como's broader strategy to bolster their squad for their debut season in Italy’s top division. Alongside Varane, the club has also secured players like Andrea Belotti, Simone Verdi, and Patrick Cutrone, aiming to build a competitive team capable of making a strong impact in Serie A.
Varane's presence is expected to enhance Como’s defensive capabilities and provide the stability needed to navigate the challenges of Italy’s premier league. His leadership and experience are anticipated to be crucial in helping the team avoid relegation and establish themselves in Serie A.
