French prodigy Raphael Varane praised by teammates after first team appearances – La Liga News 
Raphael Varane is enjoying life with Real Madrid. Enthused by Jose Mourinho and French legend Zinedine Zidane to join Los Blancos, the youngster is etching a place for himself in the first team.
Varane, 18, joined Real Madrid in the recently concluded summer transfer window. His arrival at Santiago Bernabéu hastened http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ezequiel-c13065 Garay’s departure from the capital club. However, first team chances looked slim as he stood fifth in the pecking order to
claim a central defence berth.
Absence of Portuguese duo, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Pepe-c29670, due to injuries brought forth the lucky break the youngster needed. Varane has started the last three league games for the Spanish giants, proving his 10 million Euros price tag with impressive performances.
The former Lens man hardly put a foot wrong in the Champions League encounter against the Dutch giants, Ajax Amsterdam. His concentration levels have to be lauded while his positional sense, both on and off the ball, is sublime. In closing stages on the
match, he prevented http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Jan-Vertonghen-c17814 a clear scoring opportunity with a superb sliding tackle to keep the visitors at bay.
Following his impressive performances, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Sergio-Ramos-c33096 has come out in the press and praised his abilities. The Spanish right-back was amazed by his technique and hoped for good things to come in the future.
Regarding Varane, Ramos stated on the club’s official website: “Varane is very young and he played at a high level. He proved he has a place on the team. He is a great footballer despite his young age and may go very far.”
Ramos continued to praise Jose Mourinho’s tactics and the squad rotation policy he has imposed.
"Having great replacements and playing at a high level with them says a lot about a team. Mourinho is the one who has to administer the squad throughout the season, which is long. He sees how fit we all are and how we feel. He decides,” Ramos commented.
Raphael Varane looks to be settling in Real Madrid dressing room with some ease. At the tender age of 18, he is playing in the biggest footballing club and this is an achievement in its own right.
The Madridista will be hoping he goes on to become a defensive stalwart in the future. Varane has shown that he has the capacity to become a great player and needs to keep his head down to fulfill his potential.
