Manchester United fans have encouraged Benjamin Pavard to trade Bayern Munich for Old Trafford after he sent a message to his international teammate Raphael Varane on Monday night.
United's centre-back scored the only goal of the game against Wolves as the Reds rode their luck against Gary O'Neil's men. The 30-year-old bagged the winner 15 minutes from time when he powered home a close range header.
After the full-time whistle, Varane took to Instagram to share an image of his celebration in front of the Stretford End. Among the scores of United fans and players congratulating him on the goal was reported transfer target Pavard.
