Poor Varane.

He's forced to play with his perceived enemy again.

Football is truly unpredictable. Who would have thought they'll ever play together again after their fall out at Madrid.

Even with that 480k per week.

This Nigga is very blessed even at his age.

So what will happen to Sancho, James, Rashford and Martial now since other G.O.A.T don join them now.

I think they bought CR7 for Marketing reasons.

Anyway, good luck to him but not against my darling Chelsea oooooo.
