The reason why Raphael Varane<\/strong> left Real Madrid for Manchester United<\/strong> is simply that he just wanted to take on a new challenge.\u00a0The player believes that now is the time for a change of scenery in his career. He was keen to move to Premier League for a long time. However, he could have stayed at Real Madrid for one more season if the club wanted him to stay.\u00a0Varane had just 12 months remained on his current contract with the Spainsh club. Varane rejected a new\u00a0Real Madrid\u00a0contract extension ahead of the new season and therefore the club was left with two choices : either to sell him now or lose him for free next year.<\/p>\n
