MANCHESTER UNITED outcast Raphael Varane is making the most of the international break.

That’s by relaxing with his wife on the beach in order to “recharge” his batteries.

Varane, 30, has made just eight league appearances this term after struggling with injury.

The former Real Madrid man has subsequently dropped down the pecking order under Erik ten Hag.

And he reportedly faces a bleak future at Old Trafford as teams in Saudi Arabia line up January bids.

However, United man Varane appears to be taking it all in his stride.

After retiring from France duty in February, the defender was able to take a mini-break with wife Camille.

The pair jetted to the Musandam Peninsula, an area which is just two hours north of Dubai but is governed by Oman.

Varane and Camille were able to unwind at the Six Senses Zighy Bay resort, giving great views of the Gulf of Oman.

The couple relaxed by the beach before heading to the luxury swimming pool.

And Varane even found the time to fit in a gym workout, ensuring he’s in the best shape possible for his return to Carrington.

The World Cup and four-time Champions League winner captioned his snaps: “Recharging.”

It appears some United teammates were jealous of Varane’s adventure in the Middle East.

Sergio Reguilon said: “Rafitaaaaa.”

Bruno Fernandes declared: “Good life.”

And Lisandro Martinez added: “Tell him that I love you with everything warrior.”
