Ancelotti: Varane the future of Real Madrid

Carlo Ancelotti has dubbed Raphael Varane the "future of Real Madrid".

The France defender is yet to feature this season due to injury.

"He has a great talent. We are very lucky to have him in our team because he is the future of Real Madrid," said Ancelotti.

He also praised Daniel Carvajal: "He is a very good player, who has started the season very well: confidently, and with a good mental and physical attitude. Match by match he is improving and as a reserve player he is very eager and is also under more pressure than the others. I am pleased with him."
