Varane out for weeks for Man Utd after France defender suffered injury vs Spain

France centre-back Raphael Varane has been ruled out for weeks after he was forced off the pitch in the Nations League final against Spain on Sunday due to injury.

He left in the 43rd minute after appearing to hurt himself attempting a clearance.

In addition to being a mainstay in France's line-up, Varane is a key piece of Manchester United's defence at club level.

What happened?

Varane walked off under his own power after sitting on the field in pain for a time and was flanked by medical staff.

He was replaced by Dayot Upamecano.
