Real Madrid are keen on re-signing accomplished centre-back Raphael Varane from Manchester United in the January transfer window.

Los Blancos may look to bring in a new defender after David Alaba tore his anterior cruciate ligament in the 4-1 victory over Villarreal, ruling him out for the remainder of the season.

Carlo Ancelotti is already without the services of Brazil international Eder Militao after he suffered the same serious knee injury in August.

According to Cadena Cope, Real are therefore keeping an eye on former defender Varane, who has struggled for game time at Old Trafford this season.

The four-time Champions League winner's impressive display in the 0-0 draw at Liverpool last Sunday was his first Premier League start since September 30.

However, ESPN report Erik ten Hag is keen on keeping both Varane and injured team-mate Casemiro beyond the January window as they are considered important players.

United will be targeting an improved second half of the season after crashing out of all European competition by finishing bottom of their Champions League group.

The Premier League and FA Cup are the only theatres of action left for Ten Hag ahead of Saturday's top-flight meeting at West Ham.
