Cristiano Ronaldo’s Al-Nassr Plot Move for Manchester United Star
The Saudi Pro League is reportedly looking to lure some of the best this summer and has compiled a list of 50 players it plans to sign from European clubs. They plan to spend big in the summer, and there are players who are ready to make the jump.
Casemiro has shown this season that he still has a few years left in him and is keen to keep playing. The Brazilian has been linked with several sides across the world, and now Al-Nassr are ready to try their luck.
According to a report in Sports Boom, the 33-year-old is a key target for Al-Nassr, who have already held talks with the Brazilian’s representatives. They want to bolster the squad once again, after slipping up in the league title race this season.
Casemiro will be a direct replacement for Marcelo Brozovic, who has reportedly decided to leave the club this summer. The former Real Madrid star, who is also a target for Al-Hilal, has already announced his exit from Manchester United and has yet to confirm his next club.
He said, “I will carry Manchester United with me throughout my entire life. From the first day that I walked out at this beautiful stadium, I felt the passion of Old Trafford and the love that I now share with our supporters for this special club.”
Casemiro added, “It is not time to say goodbye; there are many more memories to create during the next four months. We still have a lot to fight for together; my complete focus will, as always, remain on giving my everything to help our club to succeed.”
Casemiro’s possible move to the Saudi Pro League comes two years after Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher urged him to leave the Premier League. The former England defender had claimed that the midfielder was done at the top level in Europe and should be considering his exit.
However, the Brazilian stayed put at Old Trafford and has been a key player at the club under Erik ten Hag, Ruben Amorim, and now under Michael Carrick.
