Punter will win £37,000 if Raphael Varane scores vs Liverpool, it's the most insane 4-fold bet ever

A punter will scoop £37,306.50 from a £1 bet if Raphael Varane scores for Manchester United in Sunday's Premier League clash against Liverpool.

With 40 minutes to go until kick-off at Anfield, X user @JoshGI97 posted his remarkable four-fold bet featuring Gabriel Jesus, Mohammed Kudos, Ollie Watkins and Raphael Varane.

To kick things off, the punter correctly predicted Jesus would score a header for league leaders Arsenal in their home game against Brighton at 16/1.

Mikel Arteta's side would eventually extend their lead at the top of the Premier League to a point as Kai Havertz made it 2-0 late on.

As well as Jesus' goal, Josh predicted West Ham midfielder Kudos would score from outside the box against Wolves – a 17/2 shot that pulled through as David Moyes' side recorded a convincing 3-0 win.

It doesn't stop there, either. Josh clearly thought the in-form Ollie Watkins would score with his head in Aston Villa's clash with Brentford – and he did exactly that in the 85th minute.

But can he go all the way? To his credit, the punter has managed to forecast three scenarios but now he must wait nervously as Liverpool take on Manchester United at Anfield. Will he do it?

Here's how social media reacted to the bet.

One fan said: "Imagine you cash out in the 85th minute because you don't want to lose any money and Varane scored a last minute winner," while another commented: "Varane is not even getting a shot on target. Cashout ASAP."

A third wrote: "Class effort regardless. Weirdly feel positive about the chances of this coming in. Good luck."

A fourth said: "That cash out is abysmal.. shocking offer that. I hope he scores just so you can rinse the bookies," while a fifth added: "I’m a Liverpool fan but honestly I’m gonna be happy for you if he’s scored against us for real."

Josh must have breathed a sigh of relief ahead of kick-off, when United manager Erik ten Hag decided to name defender Raphael Varane in his starting XI, despite a lack of first-team minutes of late.
