Guillem Balague: 'Raphael Varane not joining Manchester United'

Manchester United will not be making any signings on deadline day, according to respected Spanish journalist Guillem Balague.

It had been reported that United, as well as Chelsea, were interested in a last-ditch move for Real Madrid defender Raphael Varane, but Balague has dismissed any chance of the French international moving to the Premier League.

Rubbish story of the night: Varane IS NOT going to Manchester United, before anybody gets too excited. #MUFC signing nobody today
