RAPHAEL VARANE has found a new club after leaving Manchester United.
The French defender ended his three-year spell at Old Trafford when his contract expired at the end of June.
He has now finalised a move after a month as a free agent.
Newly-promoted Serie A side Como confirmed Varane has signed a two-year deal with the option of a further year.
He could make his debut as early as Monday, with Como facing Al-Hilal in a friendly in Austria.
Varane made 95 appearances for the Red Devils, scoring once and winning two trophies.
However, he struggled with injuries throughout his time in England, missing 48 matches in total.
The 31-year-old will join up with former Arsenal and Chelsea midfielder Cesc Fabregas in Italy.
Fabregas ended his career with Como in 2023, becoming their under-19 manager.
He later served as assistant to Osian Roberts as the club won promotion to Serie A last season.

Former Premier League stars Pepe Reina, Alberto Moreno and Patrick Cutrone are also part of their squad.
Meanwhile, Thierry Henry is a minority owner after investing in 2022.
