Manchester [UK], October 13 (ANI): Manchester United have released an official update on Raphael Varane after the defender was injured while on international duty with France.

The statement reads: "Raphael Varane sustained a groin muscle injury in the UEFA Nations League final and has commenced rehabilitation at the club. He will be out for a few weeks."The centre-back was withdrawn during the first half of France's game with Spain, which Les Bleus won 2-1 at the San Siro.
