Casemiro is reportedly ready to leave Manchester United amid widespread rumours linking him with a move to Saudi Arabia.
According to a report by 90min, Casemiro has taken a decisive call on his future with Manchester United. The Brazilian international, who cost the Red Devils around £60 million, is ready to leave the club in the January transfer window. Saudi Pro League clubs are keen on securing his services this winter.
Casemiro: A Topsy-Turvy Manchester United Ride
Casemiro made an immediate impact after joining Manchester United from Real Madrid last year. The Red Devils shelled out a whopping £60 million to land the 31-year-old, with the transfer fee raising eyebrows. But he produced many game-changing performances throughout the 2022/23 season, although he had some moments to forget.
But Casemiro’s performance levels have faltered thus far in the 2023/24 season, with his fitness levels leaving much to be desired. The Brazilian international has also spent several weeks on the sidelines due to a hamstring injury. So, the former Real Madrid midfielder has managed only 951 minutes of game time in 12 appearances thus far.
Interestingly, the veteran midfielder is one of the top scorers for Manchester United this term, finding the back of the net four times. But Casemiro’s long-term future at Old Trafford is uncertain, with recent reports linking him with Saudi Pro League clubs. An update this week also pointed to Paris Saint-Germain having the opportunity to sign him.
Saudi Pro League Calling?
Saudi Pro League clubs have spent considerable sums to bolster the image of their competition. It all started with Cristiano Ronaldo’s arrival in January 2023 after he left Manchester United. Since then, other high-profile names like Sadio Mane, Riyad Mahrez, and Roberto Firmino have also arrived in Saudi Arabia.
Casemiro is the latest well-known player to emerge on the radar of the Saudi Pro League. It has now emerged that the 31-year-old is considering leaving Manchester United in the January transfer window. The former Real Madrid midfielder reckons the time is right for him to depart from Old Trafford.
Manchester United will unlikely recoup anything close to the £60 million they paid to secure Casemiro’s services last year. But with the Brazilian international ready to leave, a January departure might be on the cards.
