Currently rumoured to be on the verge of a return to football with Italian Serie A club Como, as reported by transfer expert, Fabrizio Romano, Varane is making the most of his break from the game.

Recently, the former Real Madrid defender shared snapshots of his vacation with former teammate and captain, Bruno Fernandes.
