Varane psyches himself up at the start of the season with Manchester United: “A new beginning”

Manchester United did not qualify for the Champions League this season to the regret of their fans, but their consolation prize is that they will participate in the UEFA Europa League. In that sense, Raphael Varane was enthusiastic about the start of the campaign.

“It’s a new beginning, so everyone is excited to meet the new coach. Obviously, we want to do well and win every game.” declared the French defender for the website of the English club.

The defender, who has a contract until June 2025 with the ‘Red Devils’, pointed out that last year’s campaign was already forgotten. Now, he mentioned that the team is focused on preparing to deliver victories to the fans who were left with a bitter taste.

“I think it’s a different environment, it’s pre-season, so we have to get fit, we have to prepare. It’s always exciting to play in front of our fans around the world, it’s a good experience for us and it’s a good time.”he added.

It is important to mention that Manchester United has agreed a friendly against Liverpool in Bangkok (Thailand), as reported by the English club on its website a few months ago. The match is scheduled for July 12 at the Rajamangala Stadium.
