Fans stunned after hearing how much Al Nassr will spend on Casemiro to tempt Man Utd star to Saudi Pro League
The football world is abuzz with news that Saudi Pro League club Al Nassr is willing to break the bank for Manchester United’s Casemiro. The Brazilian midfielder has garnered significant interest from top Saudi clubs, including Al Hilal, but Al Nassr, spearheaded by Cristiano Ronaldo, is determined to secure his services. Initial talks have commenced, and Casemiro is reportedly intrigued by the prospect of joining the Saudi league’s elite.
Despite a lackluster second season at United, Casemiro’s stock remains high, with Al Nassr prepared to offer a staggering €100 million (£85 million) for the 32-year-old. This figure falls just short of the record fee paid by a Saudi club, which was the £86 million Al Hilal spent to acquire Neymar. Manchester United stands to make a significant profit on the £70 million they invested in Casemiro, leaving fans in disbelief.
The news has sparked a flurry of reactions on social media, with fans expressing a mix of shock, excitement, and skepticism. Some have joked about buying Al Nassr jerseys or even personally driving Casemiro to Saudi Arabia. Others have questioned the validity of the report, suggesting that the figure may include salary and other incentives. One fan succinctly summed up the general sentiment: “Take it and run!”
Casemiro’s contract with Manchester United still has at least two years remaining, with a substantial £350,000-a-week salary. During his tenure, he has made 83 appearances, securing one Carabao Cup and one FA Cup title. As the transfer saga unfolds, fans and pundits alike will be watching with bated breath to see if Al Nassr’s lucrative offer will seal the deal.
