JAKARTA - Manchester United has not agreed on the purchase price of Real Madrid centre-back Raphael Varane, which is reported to have reached 50 million pounds (Rp997 billion).
The Daily Mail reported on Monday, July 19, even though Varane and United have reached a personal agreement, the Red Devils still have to resolve issues in their hunt for the France international.
Varane is United's main target following the transfer of Jadon Sancho from Borussia Dortmund which will be confirmed in the next few days.
Manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is trying to find the right partner for Harry Maguire, but United has yet to agree on Varane's price with Real Madrid.
United considers the Rp997 billion price to be too high because Varane will be a free agent in less than a year.

Madrid is adamant about paying such a high price because Varane is also being chased by Chelsea and PSG who are looking to pair the defender back with Sergio Ramos at the Parc des Princes.
United is in a difficult position and is in danger of failing to get Varane which would even be a tragedy if it fell into the hands of Chelsea, which is one of their fierce rivals in the domestic Premier League competition.
The Daily Mail assesses that if the Red Devils fail to get Varane then it will be a very big disappointment for United.
