Raphael Varane will sign for Real Madrid tomorrow

Raphael Varane will be in Madrid tomorrow. The 18 years old central defender will land in the capital of Spain for two reasons: He will pass medical examination in the clinic 'Sanitas La Moraleja' and then will move to the Bernabeu Stadium where, in the presence of general director Jose Angel Sanchez, will sign his contract which will link him with Real Madrid until 2016. In addition, if weather allows, will try to see some houses to live next season.

The player, who was in preseason with Lens, now will enjoy a few days on vacation until July 11, when Real Madrid players are summoned in Valdebebas. He will keep working, recommended by doctors, not to lose the fitness gained during those days.

The agreement with Varane was closed on June 21. Real will have to pay to Lens between nine and ten million euros plus variables by purpose. The player will receive a salary of one million euros in his first year. Then he will get an annual increase of 200,000 euros.

With Varane in the capital of Spain, Zinedine Zidane will meet the target that he set when arriving at Real Madrid. Because Zidane has played an important role in this signing. In fact, Zizou brought the player two weeks ago to visit the city, see the facilities and has convinced him that his sporting future is white.
