Former defender Raphaël Varane has been appointed to the board of directors of the club Como, as announced by the team in an official statement on Saturday.

Details: Rumors that Varane might stay with Como in a different role have been confirmed, and the club has now announced that the Frenchman will focus on “youth development, education, and product innovation.”

Reminder: Varane's appointment is part of a long-term strategy aimed at strengthening the club's reputation in Italian football. Como’s Indonesian owners previously brought in former Arsenal star Cesc Fàbregas as a player and later made him the head coach of the first team.

Varane, who previously played for Manchester United and Real Madrid, signed with the Serie A club last July. However, after sustaining an injury during pre-season training, he decided to retire at the end of September.
