Como 1907 have announced that Raphaël Varane has been appointed as a member of the club’s board.

The former 2018 World Cup winner with France had recently announced his retirement from football after he suffered a knee injury during his debut for Como. Varane had struggled with injuries in recent seasons and had missed a significant amount of time for his previous club Manchester United, but the latest setback represented a bridge too far.
