Raphael Varane has become a regular starter for his club, Real Madrid, this season and as a result of that has expressed his happiness regarding this matter
Varane has already made seven starts for for Real Madrid this season and three of them were in the UEFA Champions League. The French youth international has spoken on his contribution to the club and the rewards he got in return.
“We have won titles and I've been leaving my mark on the games,” he told club sponsors Bwin. “I've seen the positive side of things, and also the dimensions of how big the club is.”
The young Frenchman has also commented on how grateful he is to Los Blancos boss, Jose Mourinho. He stated that his coach has put his trust in him and added how Mourinho instilled all the values that are required of him as a Real
Madrid player.
“Mourinho has given me many things; he trusts me and allows me to express myself. He has taught me the requirements of elite sport and all that entails.”
The 19-year-old also explained what it means to him wearing the much admired no. 2 jersey that was worn by great Real defenders like http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Michel-c25453 Salgado and Christian Panucci.
Varane realises the huge responsibility that comes with his shirt but revealed that he is happy with it and feels proud to be wearing it.
“It is a responsibility for me, but I'm happy to wear this number. Very proud.”
Finally, the former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/RC-Lens-c40322 defender gave his thoughts on Los Blancos’ upcoming away encounter with Levante UD on Sunday. His team had a shock 1-0 defeat in this same fixture last season.
The centre-back concedes that it will be a tough match for Real but believes his team can rise to the occasion.
“It will be a difficult game. We know we are a good team but we must be attentive. It will be a very physical game.”
Real Madrid are currently sitting on the third spot in the table standings. Three points against the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Valencia-c40863 based side is a must if they want to keep their hopes of retaining the La Liga title this season.
