The World Cup final on Sunday will pit club team-mates against each other and Manchester United pair Lisandro Martinez and Raphael Varane will be among them.
The spotlight will be on Paris Saint-Germain stars Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappe facing off against each other at the Lusail Stadium, with both level on five goals in the tournament. But for United fans there will be another intriguing subplot.
Martinez and Varane have not played alongside each other that frequently yet, considering the Argentina international only joined from Ajax in the summer, but they’ve already formed a good relationship. Harry Maguire showed his qualities while playing for England at the World Cup, yet he was kept on the bench by Martinez and Varane before the competition.
