After a sarcastic Manchester United final, will Casemiro, 32, turn his attention to Saudi Arabia?
Casemiro was not smiling after his club United beat English Premier League (EPL) champions Manchester City 2-1 in the English FA Cup final of the 2023-2024 season on Sunday (May 25) to win the trophy.
Since joining United from Real Madrid in the summer of 2022, Kasemir has been a regular starter barring injury. However, he was left out of the squad for the FA Cup final.
Kasemir joined in the celebrations on the pitch and in the locker room, sharing in the joy of winning with his teammates. However, 안전놀이터 추천 he did not attend the victory party and went on vacation with his family.
This sparked transfer speculation.
Casemiro is contracted to United until the summer of 2026, with an option for a one-year extension. “I’m healthy, happy and playing here every day,” he said despite the transfer speculation. As I always say, United have given me what I want,” he said, ”the joy of playing and enjoying the Premier League. So I am happy to be at United,” he said.
According to Brazil’s Goal.com, Casemiro is a major target in the Saudi Pro League, with Al Nasr, Al Ahli and Al Qadisiya the three clubs showing the most active interest. Al Nasr is the team that Cristiano Ronaldo played with at Real.
Al Ahli is home to his Brazilian teammate Roberto Firmino.
The publication believes that the Saudi clubs will make a huge offer that will exceed the salary that United are paying Casemiro. However, Al Nasr are not in a hurry as they have Inter Milan legend Marcelo Brozovic in the Marcelo position.
With his future uncertain, Casemiro is expected to hold talks with United’s hierarchy. He earns a weekly wage of £350,000, the highest in the club’s history, but could be tempted by a move to Saudi Arabia, where he is guaranteed to earn more.
Under new owner Jim Ratcliffe, 카지노사이트 순위 United are also looking to make changes, so it’s possible they could put Casemiro on the market. If that happens, Casemiro could be reunited in some way with Ronaldo, who he played with at both Real and United.
