There were rumours about Varane wanting to leave before international break. It's possible he has changed his mind now that Zidane is back though.

Didn't Varane say he wants a new challenge or something like that ? The guy won every major trophy there is to win , can't blame him.

I think he came out earlier this week to deny those rumors of him wanting out.

I mean, where else would he go? He obviously can’t join us, anywhere else from Madrid would be a downgrade for him.

Yeah. I don't think he is going anywhere with Zidane return. Zidane is the one that took the gamble and made him come to Madrid. He was nailed on being a PSG player before Zidane call.

Zidane is a pretty loyal guy as well, he wouldn't want one of "his men" to leave.

Raiola... oh hell no. we should pass on this one imo. De Ligt is an amazing talent but you just know fatrat will become his agent before long

From the guy from Catradio/TV3 who kept saying De Jong was going to join us. He is saying De Ligt and his family will decide despite what Tuttosport reported.

This sounds like canned stuff he's been instructed to say by his agent so that they have some bargaining power. So far, the media picture painted has pretty much had him reveal his hand with the Barca/De Jong/Ajax links. If this went on we'd have the clear upper hand come negotiation time. It had to be done at some point. Raiola is a greedy bastard but from what I've heard he gets his clients what they want. If we trust that De Ligt wants Barca (which honestly just adds up all things considered, unless we decide we can't give him playing time), then he'll come. Raiola will make the process more painful but I don't think "my future is decided by Raiola" is to be taken literally.

Raiola wants him to join eintracht frankfurt. MdL was not happy but accepted the plan from the man he pays to handle his business
