PUMA SIGNS WORLD CUP WINNER AND CHAMPIONS LEAGUE RECORD BREAKER RAPHAËL VARANE
February 18, 2021PUMA SIGNS WORLD CUP WINNER AND CHAMPIONS LEAGUE RECORD BREAKER RAPHAËL VARANE
February 18, 2021The PUMA family is growing further. We are excited about our partnership with Real Madrid and France national team star Raphaël Varane. As one of the fastest defenders in world football, Raphaël will step into the PUMA ULTRA silo, PUMA’s lightweight speed boot.
Raphaël Varane is a fantastic signing for us. He has achieved so much in the game at just 27 years old. He is technically gifted, in combination with great speed and strength and is considered one of the best defenders in the game today.
Having made waves as one of the best defensive prospects in football, Varane made his international debut at just 19 years old, going on to make over 70 appearances for his country. He represented France in both the 2014 World Cup, where he was nominated for the Best Young Player award, and the 2018 World Cup, playing in every minute of every game en route to France’s victory.
I am delighted to join the PUMA family at this stage of my career and during a very exciting time for the brand. PUMA felt like a natural fit for me and I am thrilled to join the home to some of the greatest players in football history. I feel we share many common values, in particular PUMA’s outlook on sustainability, which opens up the possibilities of working together in areas beyond just football.
