"Love for football, emotions": Varane secretly attends Lens vs PSG match

Raphaël Varane announced his retirement earlier this season following another serious injury. However, the Frenchman hasn’t forgotten his passion for the beautiful game.

Details: On his Instagram page, the former center-back shared photos from the Coupe de France match between Lens and PSG. Blending in with the fans, he tried to stay incognito, covering his face with a Lens scarf.

He captioned the two photos: "Love football, emotions. That’s what it’s all about."

Notably, Lens is where Varane’s professional journey began. On November 6, 2010, he was called up to the Lens first team for a match against Montpellier.

After training with the team all week and stepping in for injured center-back Alaeddine Yahia, Varane started the match in the lineup.

Reminder: Varane's last club was Italy's Como, who didn't even register him for the Serie A season due to injury, while his CV also includes Lens, Real Madrid and Manchester United.
