On Saturday, during the Chelsea versus Manchester United clash, there was a huge concern for fans of the Red Devils and France National team as Raphael Varane came off due to injury.
There was concern, not only because of the French man’s injury record but also because he left the match in tears as he feared of missing the World Cup. His tears hid the severity of the injury.
The fact that he is a key player for both club and country and his reaction to his injury-built fear in the minds of fans. The fear was he would miss action for both club and country for a long time and the injury might be a very serious one.
The good news is that the feared ACL injury was a less severe injury than feared. The French center back will miss only around 3-4 weeks of action and will be going to the World Cup with the France National Football team.
