Manchester United defender Raphael Varane is open to returning to Real Madrid next month.
Varane has been linked with Real after they lost David Alaba to an ACL injury last week.
And AS says the Frenchman is open to a deal.
Varane is off contract at United in June and would be willing to leave in January for a return to Madrid.
He still has a house in Madrid and would also be prepared to accept a hefty pay-cut to re-sign for Real.
