Raphael Varane Injury Update: Manchester United fans have been enjoying a fruitful season so far. Under the leadership of Erik ten Hag, they have found their way back. Ever since Sir Alex Ferguson left the club, United have been far from stability and they have finally found the same under the Dutchman. But, injuries have slightly derailed the end of the season for them. Now, it seems as though Raphael Varane could miss the rest of the season following an ankle injury.

Raphael Varane sustained an ankle injury against Sevilla in the Europa League. The Frenchman missed two games for the Red Devils in all competitions after being replaced midway through the first leg of the quarterfinal.
According to recent reports, the central defender’s ankle has undergone additional scans after the initial swelling started to go down. The outcome is not favorable. United worries that the World Cup champion may miss up to six weeks of play. As a result, he might miss the club’s final eight Premier League games. The team is optimistic that he will be available for the FA Cup final on June 3.

Varane might be out for “a few weeks,” according to the latest information from United. The defender might not be available for the remainder of the campaign, according to David Ornstein. With players coming back from injury, manager Erik ten Hag has been careful, and he is unlikely to take a chance with the star, who is valued at £36 million unless he is totally fit.
Therefore, we do not anticipate him playing in the final eight games of the Premier League season. Due to Lisandro Martinez’s injury, Harry Maguire, Victor Lindelof, and Luke Shaw will need to step up. Varane might be included in the matchday squad for the FA Cup final in June, but it depends on how quickly he heals.

Manchester United’s injury woes
The Red Devils have been plagued with an injury wave at the moment. In addition to Luke Shaw, Scott McTominay, and other players who have missed the last few games, Lisandro Martinez and Raphael Varane were also forced off against Sevilla last week; the former was out for the season.
Marcel Sabitzer was forced to be replaced by Christian Eriksen after reporting a problem during the warm-up against Nottingham Forest. But he returned to play against Brighton in the FA Cup Semi-final. Even Malacia was out injured but recovered in time for their crunch clash.
With two tournaments to contend for and as many as 9 games remaining between now and June, the situation at United has only gotten worse as a result of the most recent injury. Erik ten Hag will be hoping that some of the players who are now out will be able to play in the FA Cup final against Manchester City.
