Man Utd won't be stronger without Ronaldo, Varane insists

Raphael Varane doesn’t believe Manchester United would be stronger without Cristiano Ronaldo.

The Red Devils have won three from three in preseason without the Portuguese forward, who reportedly wants to leave Old Trafford this summer.

However, Varane says nobody in the dressing room wants Ronaldo to leave.

He told BBC Sport: “That debate was outside of the dressing room.

“We know his quality. And we know he’s very famous. So we know a lot of people will speak about the performance of the team and his performance.

“Cristiano is a great competitor. He’s a legend and he always helps the team, so obviously it’s very good to play with him.”
