Bit more in here on United search for a central defender. Contact made with Real re Varane
Solskjaer is now targeting a central defender as the next part of his recruitment before the new season.
BBC Sport understands contact has been made with Real Madrid about France World Cup-winning defender Raphael Varane.
The 28-year-old's contract expires next summer and there are doubts over whether he will be offered an extension that would meet his demands.
It is thought Real may be willing to let the player leave the Bernabeu for around £50
Real Madrid originally wanted £60m for Varane, but they now appear to be willing to lower their asking price. One source suggested Real Madrid would be willing to do a deal in the region of £43m, although add-ons could be tagged on to that fee too. [@hirstclass] #MUFC

Arsenal have offered Reiss Nelson a new contract until 2024 to send him on loan immediatly after (current one expires in 11 months). Nelson has not accepted yet as he’s looking for other options.
#AFC Olympiacos and three English clubs already contacted Nelson to sign him.

United have had dialogue with Real Madrid today over Raphael Varane. Whether it's a deal that definitely happens time will tell #mufc
Raphaël Varane to PSG is now IMPOSSIBLE after signing Ramos. #MUFC [@FabrizioRomano]
Manchester United have made Raphaël Varane an offer which is superior to what Real Madrid have proposed. United are willing to pay €50m for Varane and believe that a deal to sign him is ‘well advanced’. #MUFC [@JorgeCalabres]
Raphael Varane wants to try something new this summer preferring the Premier league. That's why he also changed his agency to CAA Base recently who are based in the uk and has many Utd players already. He's unlikely to renew at Real Madrid #mufc#mujournal [@FabrizioRomano]
Manchester United are meticulously keeping an eye on the Euros to not miss stars exploding on the big stage. Therefore, United's final decision about Kamaldeen Sulemana is a few weeks away. Ajax are trying to take advantage of this. #MUFC [@EkstraBladet via @Vishy_united]
