Manchester United’s star midfielder Casemiro has been linked to a potential move towards his ex-teammate, Cristiano Ronaldo in Saudi Arabia. It has been reported by journalist Ali Al-Harbi has suggested that the Brazilian might be close to signing a two-and-a-half-year deal until the end of 2026.
Casemiro’s arrival will strengthen the Al-Nassr squad even further after their hefty summer acquisitions. Ever since the likes of Sadio Mane, Aymeric Laporte, Otavio and Marcelo Brozovic arrived, Al-Nassr have become one of the strongest sides in Saudi.
Casemiro has played alongside Ronaldo during their time at Real Madrid and Manchester United. He has also impressed during his 18-month tenure at United by contributing over 11 goals and seven assists. Despite struggling from injuries, Casemiro will be looking to revamp his career with a move to a new location.
If Al-Nassr manage to complete the Brazilian’s transfer, it will be one of the biggest names that the Saudi Pro League may have managed to bring to the Middle East. After a mixed campaign with the Red Devils, a new challenge could help refresh Casemiro’s career.
Casemiro expresses regrets on joining Manchester United
Reports suggest that Manchester United midfielder Casemiro is expressing regret over his move to Old Trafford amid the club’s recent struggles. Despite back-to-back victories over Brentford and Sheffield United, Casemiro has faced criticism for his defensive vulnerabilities, with opponents easily dribbling past him.
There are indications that the Brazilian may have been dropped for the Sheffield United match even if he were fit, raising questions about his future at the club. Sources indicate that Casemiro is unhappy with the institutional instability at Manchester United, having won only the League Cup since his £70 million move from Real Madrid in 2022.
Speculation suggests that a potential departure is looming, with the Red Devils eyeing Benfica midfielder Joao Neves and willing to pay around £61 million for the Portuguese international.
