“He wants to try a new challenge”- Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti confirms Casemiro’s move to Manchester United
Carlo Ancelotti and Casemiro
According to sources, Manchester United is growing more and more optimistic that they will sign Real Madrid star Casemiro. They have made significant progress in their search for the Brazil midfielder, who is anticipated to fetch around £60 million.
After speaking with the Brazilian international, Carlo Ancelotti has confirmed Casemiro’s intention to transfer from Real Madrid to Manchester United. “I have spoken with Casemiro. He wants to try a new challenge. We understand his decision,” the Madrid coach revealed at a press conference on Friday morning.
The 30-year-old defensive midfielder has told Ancelotti he wants a new challenge after winning five Champions Leagues and three La Liga titles. Negotiations between Madrid and United are still ongoing but Ancelotti has made it clear he will not play on Saturday against Celta Vigo.
Real Madrid star Casemiro’s deal to Man Utd is getting closer
Erik ten Hag became dissatisfied with his inability to capture Barcelona player Frenkie de Jong, so he turned his focus to the five-time Champions League champion. Due to Adrien Rabiot’s personal demands, the Red Devils also withdrew from an agreement to sign the Juventus midfielder this week.
The signing of Casemiro was first considered a “long shot” by Manchester United insiders, but with this week’s quick development, there is now a solid consensus that he will transfer to Old Trafford. After witnessing Real Madrid sign Aurelien Tchouameni this summer, Casemiro is rumored to be interested in joining the team as a signal that his time at the Santiago Bernabeu may be coming to an end.
The 30-year-old is thought to be enjoying a new challenge in the Premier League because he has achieved everything with the Spanish giants. His wish to go is reportedly accepted by Real Madrid as well. The sources have confirmed that the midfielder is currently assessing the advantages and disadvantages of a potential transfer.
Manchester United is anticipated to be extremely active in the final days of the transfer window as a result of the acquisition of Casemiro. Ten Hag would prefer to have two midfielders, and Moises Caicedo of Brighton is a potential candidate. To strengthen their assault, the Red Devils are reportedly considering a new move for Ajax winger Antony, and Ten Hag has also presented a case for Chelsea striker Hakim Ziyech. The team would also need a successor for Cristiano Ronaldo if he were to leave. For £10 million, Aaron Wan-Bissaka could move to Crystal Palace, opening up space for a new right defender while also providing David de Gea with backup.
