'They told us he's here for the pay-check': Fans are loving Varane's passionate full-time celebration

Raphael Varane was crucial in getting Man United through to the last-16 of the Europa League as he cleared Lewandowski's shot off the line in the dying moments of the game.

As the full-time whistle blew to hand United the win, Varane was still riding the wave off of Man United fans' back as he ran over to them and had them join his many impassioned fist-pumps.

Zenitsu: "I have never seen Varane this excited before tbh, maybe I have missed it but I have been following him since his early Madrid days as he’s been my favourite CB since then. Man has always been shy and away from the noise and fans but now he’s expressing more out on the field.❤️"

Duccati: "Someone said that we bought old players now we have players fighting for the badge and not playing for wages tears man."

Jeff: "I think he also loves beating Barcelona.

 😂"

If I was a MUFC fan, seeing the passion of the likes of Varane & Casemiro would make me so proud. Those guys have won it all but they celebrate in a United shirt as if they’re at the start of their careers - so much hunger. Symbols of an amazing team spirit at the club right now.
