MANCHESTER UNITED ace Raphael Varane’s injury hell continues and he will be sidelined during all of France’s Nations League matches this month.
The French national team announced that Varane is feeling muscular pain in the left thigh and will miss all three of Les Bleus’ next games.
The centre-back has been replaced by Liverpool ace Ibrahima Konate, who stood out for the Reds this season in the Premier League and the Champions League.
France are scheduled to take on Croatia away on Monday before travelling to Austria to face Ralf Rangnick’s men on Friday.
Didier Deschamps’ side will then lock horns with Croatia once more in the reverse fixture at Stade de France on June 13.
Varane was one of United‘s saving graces this past season, which saw the Manchester giants producing their worst ever Premier League campaign.
