Raphael Varane has insisted that he is ‘100 percent committed’ to Real Mdrid, amid reports linking him with a move to Bayern Munich.
The French defender – a €10m arrival from Lens in the summer of 2011 – started in Pepe’s absence during Sunday’s 3-0 win at Getafe and maintained after the match that he was happy at the Santiago Bernabeu.
“I’m 100 percent with the team and feeling happy. I have a contract until 2020,” the 21-year-old said.
“I’m calm and when I’ve played, I’ve tried to do well. Sergio Ramos and Pepe play more than me, but I try to do the best I can.
“My knee hasn’t hurt for a year now. I can play every three days without discomfort. My most important objectives are La Liga and the Champions League.
“It’s good to have time to prepare for games. We weren’t worried at 0-0, we wanted to win and had the determination to do so.
“Karim [Benzema]’s very happy that he made a big contribution.”
