Man United beat Arsenal to signing of latest French wonderkid

The 18-year-old Frenchman, who play either in the centre of defence or as a holding midfield player, has only recently broken into the Ligue 1 side’s first team, however, he is considered by many experts in France to be one of the country’s most gifted up-and-coming players.
The surprise, however, is that United manager Sir Alex Ferguson has beaten his old rival, Arsenal head coach Arsene Weger, to the 6ft 3in Varane’s signature, especially considering the fact that the Gunners boss is thought to be an expert when it comes to players from his homeland.
And, despite the fact that Varane has only recently put pen to paper on a contract with Lens, according to sources close to the player, a £3 million deal to bring the player to Old Trafford this summer is “nearly done”.
