Manchester United chiefs insist Raphael Varane's injury isn't serious.

The defender was missing for Saturday's 2-1 win against Brentford.

United manager Erik ten Hag stated before kickoff that Varane would've played if the game had come a few days later.

The Manchester Evening News says club sources have stressed Varane is not injured but merely out with a "minor issue".

Varane has missed three games so far this season due to injury.
