Varane: Destin de Champion

This first episode follows Raphaël during Real Madrid's breathtaking 2018-2019 season. His family, friends and coaches tell us more about his childhood and his debut in RC Lens, where he first started as a professional player. Zinedine Zidane and José Mourinho share their first impressions about the young defender.

Raphaël started his career at Real Madrid, one of the world's greatest clubs, right after finishing high school. His teammates Sergio Ramos, Pepe, Marcelo and Luka Modrić remember his arrival. But while his career was booming, the young defender had to cope with a serious injury. At his first World Cup in 2014, Raphaël had to face another kind of adversity…

Still struggling with his recovery, Raphaël could not participate in Euro 2016 and had to overcome this disappointment. The birth of his son and the new involvement of his brother as his manager helped Raphaël reinvent himself and push himself to new limits. The consecration of the French team at the 2018 World Cup reinforced his will to give back while becoming a true role model for children.
