"The young defender Raphael Varane, who has revealed himself at Madrid's 'Real' club, is grateful to head coach Jose Mourinho for the opportunity and other advice given to him. Only 19 years old, this season the Frenchman has established himself in the main lineup of the royal club. Already receiving offers from other teams, the footballer is certainly not thinking about leaving. "I want to thank Jose Mourinho for everything. He made me a real footballer and added confidence in every game," Varane told AS newspaper. "I worked hard and a lot. I feel great in Madrid, because the teammates of this team are amazing, they also helped me," added the French national team defender. It was Mourinho who noticed the player and transferred him to 'Real' in 2011. This season, he played 27 matches and scored 2 goals in the ranks of the 'white' team."
