Known for being a smooth operator on the pitch, Varane also pretty slick off of fashion. He frequently sports the brand because he is a BOSS Eyewear spokesperson, and the slim-cut suits and sporty stylings fit him well. “I enjoy fashion, but I don’t dress outlandishly.” Some individuals are more ostentatious,” he says (politely).

The BOSS Eyewear collection features optical frames and sunglasses crafted with a mix of eco-friendly and recycled materials, and finished in a range of retro-inspired shapes and shades. ‘I have a few different pairs I love from the new collection,’ says Varane. ‘Boss is very much my style. It’s a classic, quality brand.’

He won’t discuss who at United is the most fashionable, but he claims to have a good reputation among teammates. He grins and explains that French culture values style.
