Manchester United defender Raphael Varane has announced his retirement from the France national football team.
"I will definitely miss these moments with you, but it's time for a new generation," the 29-year-old Le Parisien was quoted as saying.
According to Varan, he made this decision because of problems with his knee, mental fatigue and a desire to be more with his family.
In 2013-2022, Varane played 93 matches for the French national team, scoring 5 goals. He is the 2018 world champion and the 2022 world vice-champion.
