Mourinho favourite Raphael Varane denies he is unhappy at Real Madrid
The France international has had to play second fiddle to Pepe and Sergio Ramos at the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu and there were wide reports the 21-year-old was looking to leave as a result.
Varane had been strongly linked with a reunion with Mourinho at the Bridge – the 52-year-old signed him for Madrid in 2011 – but the centre-back has denied the rumours and insists he is happy.
“I never said I shouldn’t be competing with Pepe. That’s a lie. Even though I want to play, the competition is a good thing and helps me improve,” the Frenchman was quoted by the IBTimes.
