Raphael Varane

The magic of great positioning.

Real Madrid legend Fernando Hierro has taken the time to praise Raphael Varane in the wake of the Frenchman's impressive performance against Barcelona.

The young centre-back put in a man-of-the-match performance to help Madrid to a 1-1 draw in the first leg of their Copa del Rey semi-final against the Catalan giants, and has since been compared to Hierro.

"It's not time for that or for any other comparisons. Varane is very good, he's magnificent and he's got it all," Hierro told Marca.

"He's a player with good ball control, good positioning and he's very fast. He's also strong in the air in both boxes.

"But he must be left to grow, so he can be taken care of, creating the ideal environment for him to develop and show what he's got.

"Flaws? It would be strange if he didn't have anything that needed correcting at the age of 19. Varane is equally good now as he was before having played against Barcelona."

Varane has made 18 appearances in all competitions this season for Madrid, and was rewarded for his good form at club level with a call-up for France's international friendly against Germany.

The legend himself

seems like a boss already

Pfft we don't need your overly hyped young Cb we have 2 Maldini's on the way

Btw is it true what i heard that Varane would most likely follow Mou if he leaves to another club.

"Welcome, young Raphaël. I have been expecting you. I am looking forward to completing your training. In time, you will call me Mou."

"You're gravely mistaken. You won't convert me as you did Carvalho."

"Good. I can feel your anger. Madrid has no defence. Take your starting spot. Strike Barcalona down with all of your hatred and your journey towards My side will be complete!"

"Good! Your hatred has made you powerful. Now fulfill your destiny and take your Carvalho's place at my side!"

"Yes Mou"
