Africa-Press<\/a> – Nigeria<\/a>. <\/strong><\/span>Real Madrid boss, Zinedine Zidane, has ruled out any possibility of defender, Raphael Varane leaving the club amid links from Manchester United.<\/p>\n

Man United have long been admirers of Varane and are keen to add a centre-back next summer transfer window.<\/p>\n

Speaking on the development before Real Madrid\u2019s La Liga clash against Villarreal on Saturday, Zidane insisted that the French star was not for sale at any price.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is not just me [who wants to keep him],\u201d Zidane said as quoted by Metro UK.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s part of this club. We were very lucky to be able to bring him to [Real] Madrid.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe has a great career, he has achieved a lot since he has been here. Of course, he\u2019s untransferable for the club, for the coach that I\u2019m, for people in general.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat is clear and unambiguous. Now we cannot stop people from talking. They are not just talking about Varane, but about all the players, Real Madrid ones and others.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut for Varane, my position is clear, and it is the same as the club\u2019s position.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
