Casemiro

Manchester United reportedly turn their attention to Real Madrid's Casemiro after a move for Juventus midfielder Adrien Rabiot collapses.

Manchester United are ready to send out an SOS to Anthony Martial - with the striker set to be fit to face Liverpool. Chelsea are set to smash the record for the biggest spend in a single transfer window this summer. Manchester United have reportedly withdrawn their bid for Frenkie de Jong, with the club turning their attention to other targets. Manchester United are considering a £50m move for Real Madrid midfielder Casemiro as their deal to sign Adrien Rabiot is on the brink of collapse.

CASEMIRO has reportedly emerged as a shock target for Manchester United.

Despite having agreed a £15million deal with Juventus for Rabiot, United are understood to have since cooled their interest on that front. While United are thought to consider the signing of the Brazilian a 'long shot', they are believed to have been given encouragement that a deal could take place. United may also have seen their chances of landing the 63-time Brazil international boosted by the fact the defensive midfielder seemingly faces a battle on his hands to retain his starting spot at the Santiago Bernabeu.

Casemiro is now at the centre of Manchester United's focus as a deal for Adrien Rabiot is set to collapse, but the Brazilian could cost upwards of £50m even ...

Ten Hag needs reinforcements, and United need an answer, but with only two weeks left in the summer window their time is running out. The old-school midfield trio of Toni Kroos, Luka Modric and Casemiro is due to come to an abrupt end at some point, but Madrid are already prepared with Aurelien Tchouameni, Eduardo Camavinga and Fede Valverde ready and waiting. But their inability to do so this summer just goes to show how far they have fallen. But this summer has been particularly alarming, and also damaging to their reputation. The 30-year-old was vital in Madrid's double-winning season that saw them lift both the La Liga title and the Champions League. Rabiot is represented by his mother Veronique, and not only was she supposedly not keen on Manchester as a destination, she's driving a hard bargain over a potential package for her son.

Manchester United are reportedly prepared to offer £67 million for Real Madrid midfielder Casemiro - while also doubling his wages.

Of course, he feels loved at Real Madrid and that also counts. Nobody doubts what Casemiro has achieved. He knows, however, that he has the backing of the Real Madrid fans, the coach, the club and his teammates during this process. He'll have to consider the absence of Champions League football this season and what it would mean to be out of a competition that is part of his daily life. There is a lot of money involved and now it is time to think thoroughly before making a decision, something Casemiro is doing as he is considering the idea.

It is thought he has little interest in leaving, even if a deal could be agreed between the clubs.

Real Madrid are not closed to the possibility of selling Casemiro this summer but will demand a massive fee from Manchester United.

MANCHESTER UNITED have been handed a boost in their bid to sign Casemiro with the player reportedly open to a Real Madrid exit.

Man United target Casemiro has won the Champions League five times for Real Madrid during his nine years at the club.

Overall, FM22 suggests that Casemiro could become a key player for United, regularly starting in their midfield and helping improve the side. The Reds scored eight more goals and conceded 12 fewer goals with Casemiro in midfield, highlighting his impact. Ten Hag's side were four points behind Tottenham in fourth and 10 behind champions Liverpool - not the biggest gap in the world. Although it still wasn't enough for a spot in the top four, as Ten Hag's side finished fifth in the Premier League, they were much closer to their rivals. To set up this simulation, we used the Football Manager 2022 editor to arrange for Casemiro to join United from Real Madrid, using FM22 to run the simulation. So, if United were to make a move for Casemiro this summer, how could the Brazilian impact Ten Hag's side?

The Brazilian started the game against Eintracht Frankfurt last week and helped his side to a 2-0 win. [The Red Devils were willing to double the veteran’s wages](https://madriduniversal.com/casemiro-considering-manchester-united-offer-as-his-salary-will-double-report/) which would come to a figure of €430,000 per week. The report claims that Casemiro has not closed the door on a departure from Madrid this summer, contrary to reports. This is not surprising considering the poor management and performance of Manchester United this season. The arrival of Aurelien Tchouameni signals competition for the defensive midfield position. [COPE](https://twitter.com/partidazocope/status/1559926616721178624?s=21&t=QvrcZwcLlwPhd5KPLcrD6Q), the Brazilian midfielder has no intention of leaving Real Madrid and is not even considering a move away from the Bernabeu.

Manchester United have their eye on five signings, including Real Madrid midfielder Casemiro, while Everton want Adnan Januzaj, and Naby Keita could leave.

They have Eduardo Camavinga and Aurelien Tchouameni in their squad, so are well stocked for the future, making this potentially a sensible time to raise funds from the player’s sale. Paper Round’s view: Januzaj’s brief and impressive spell for United came under David Moyes at Old Trafford, so he might prefer to return to a manager who helped him into professional football. Paper Round’s view: None of these players were being mentioned much a week ago, let alone a month, which demonstrates just how poorly United have planned for the transfer window.

Chelsea have made solid additions to their squad during the summer transfer window. Raheem Sterling and Marc Cucurella, among others, seem like top signings.

Chelsea looks to steal yet another Manchester United target as Todd Boehly sets his eyes on five-time Champions League winner Casemiro.

If De Jong decides to leave Barcelona this summer, the Dutchmen will be looking for a club with Champions League football. This is something Chelsea can offer that Manchester United can not. Chelsea is looking at another Manchester United target Frenkie De Jong, it is believed the Blues is the favorites now to sign the Dutch international.

MANCHESTER UNITED and Chelsea are again linked with the same transfer target.

The Blues still view United as a rival and do not want to be seen to strengthen Ten Hag's squad. But it appears they will have to look elsewhere from the 23-year-old. Owner Todd Boehly is thinking about making a move for the 30-year-old. The Blues are reportedly interested in signing [Real Madrid](/latest/real-madrid-fc) midfielder Casemiro, and will also block United's interest in Christian Pulisic. Casemiro emerged as a target for the Red Devils earlier this week. [Transfer news LIVE: Man Utd close to fourth signing, Chelsea agreement](/sport/football/1656211/Transfer-news-LIVE-Man-Utd-Moises-Caicedo-Casemiro-Matheus-Cunha-Chelsea-Cristiano-Ronaldo)

Chelsea and Manchester United look set to lock horns this summer as the transfer deadline draws closer.

Shortly after Tchouameni snubbed [Chelsea](https://www.football.london/chelsea-fc/) and penned a six-year deal at the Santiago Bernabeu, Casemiro faced an increasingly uncertain future in the Spanish capital. Though, the report said that the La Liga champions will 'gladly' keep the him for the time being if he drops his desire for an improved deal. It's said that Aurelien Tchouameni emerged as a potential replacement, but Real swooped in and hijacked the Blues' interest. Chelsea look set to hand Manchester United a major blow in the race to sign Real Madrid's Casemiro, according to reports. [Marca](https://www.marca.com/en/football/real-madrid/2022/01/28/61f3ece3ca47417b728b4583.html), the France international was - ironically - identified by Carlo Ancelotti as the ['perfect replacement for Casemiro'](https://www.football.london/chelsea-fc/news/chelsea-takeover-real-madrid-transfer-23412728).

Chelsea have made solid additions to their squad during the summer transfer window. Raheem Sterling and Marc Cucurella, among others, seem like top signings.

The only slight question mark would be around Chelsea paying such a large fee for a player who has already reached the age of 30. However, the report suggests that [Chelsea](https://www.teamtalk.com/chelsea) have been looking at the star for a longer period. However, he has performed consistently for years, and nothing over the past season or so has suggested that will stop any time soon. Should they land him, Casemiro would be a great addition to the Chelsea side. Chelsea are keen on Real Madrid star Casemiro per reports, and they could snatch him from the Spanish side with a big offer. They are targeting a big name to help them ascend the table, too.

The Red Devils have approached Real Madrid for the Brazilian midfield powerhouse while offering him a five-year contract to boot. Shoring up the holding midfield slot had to be a priority for the Red Devils, with Matic leaving a gaping hole at Old Trafford despite his advancing age. But with the Dutch midfielder uninterested in leaving Barcelona, Manchester United set sights on Adrien Rabiot,

CASEMIRO is Manchester United's new transfer target as they look to sign new players in midfield.

He may not be the greatest of ball-carriers and his passing may not always be progressive - a huge reason Erik ten Hag wants De Jong - but how United would benefit from his energy, defensive intelligence and ability to disrupt opposition attacks. Ndidi would not come cheap, of course, but there's a possibility Leicester might be tempted for around £40million or so, which they could then reinvest. Ndidi could win the ball back and set off the likes of Eriksen, Bruno Fernandes and Jadon Sancho. The 47-cap Nigerian international's durability has come into question in the last couple of seasons but when fit, Ndidi is one of the best tacklers and intercepters in the Premier League. Certainly he would be a fine signing and offers qualities the Red Devils sorely lack in the middle of the park. Since his debut in 2017, Ndidi has established himself as one of the best ball-winners in the division and is seriously adept at breaking up play.

Brazil midfielder mulling over United offer that dwarfs his Real Madrid contract.

One key factor is if Casemiro feels that he’s going to be a key starter for Madrid in the next two or three years, as he is now. “Case is already a coach,” a friend of the player told El Pais recently. But in this case, United have made the approach for a player they think will bring balance. Tchouameni is going to learn a lot and is going to improve a lot with Casemiro”. Rodrygo, his compatriot at Madrid, thinks Casemiro helped change the image of Brazilian footballers being lazy. Now, Casemiro is the subject of United’s attention. The player, an international colleague of United midfielder Fred, is obsessed by tactics and self-improvement. Ancelotti even apologised to him for getting him wrong in his first spell in Madrid, when he loaned the player to Porto. [the 25-year-old has shown no inclination to join United](https://www.thenationalnews.com/sport/football/2022/08/08/man-united-and-barca-keen-to-complete-frenkie-de-jong-deal-but-dutchman-not-ready-to-leave/) and has always preferred to stay at Barca. Casemiro is at his best alongside Toni Kroos, 32, and Luca Modric, who turns 37 next month - the base in Madrid’s Bermuda triangle. United’s offer is believed to be substantially more than his current deal and his contract would run for four years. The 63-cap Brazil international has been perfectly happy at Madrid, where he has an excellent relationship with manager Carlo Ancelotti, who considers him one of his main allies in the dressing room.

MANCHESTER UNITED are keen on signing Casemiro from Real Madrid before the transfer window slams shut.

[Erik ten Hag](/latest/erik-ten-hag) remains hopeful of landing Frenkie de Jong from Barcelona. As well as Casemiro, United also want to sign a new forward before the transfer window shuts. [Manchester United](/latest/manchester-united-fc) are getting inadvertent help from two [Real Madrid](/latest/real-madrid-fc) players as they look to sign Casemiro, according to reports. And Raphael Varane was the latest to move between the two clubs, with the France international joining United last year after a deal was approved by Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. Should a move end up materialising, however, the 30-year-old will become the seventh player to transfer between the two clubs since the turn of the millennium.

Certainly, his agents are “aware” of United’s interest and are “not quashing it,” with the player yet to decide. And there is – incredibly – reason to believe that this is a deal the Red Devils could complete before the closure of the transfer window. Ahead of the Champions League tie with Paris Saint-Germain he analysed Kylian Mbappe in order to predict his movements and anticipate a response, limiting the Frenchman’s effectiveness in a 3-1 win. Although he is 30 years of age, the Brazilian would provide an anchor to a midfield that has been lost at sea for years now, offering a level of tactical intelligence that has been absent from the failed experiments with the likes of Casemiro uses the analytics tool Wyscout to study his own game in intensive detail and second-guess his opponents.

[Marca](https://www.marca.com/en/football/real-madrid/2022/08/17/62fce5b022601daa308b4576.html), who say that Casemiro has not ruled out a possible departure from Madrid and is ‘studying everything that is taking place at [Manchester United](https://www.mirror.co.uk/all-about/manchester-united-fc) and analysing in detail whether the English club will be able to recover their splendour soon.’ [Manchester United](https://www.mirror.co.uk/all-about/manchester-united-fc) have shown just how desperately they need further reinforcements this summer following season opening defeats to [Brighton](https://www.mirror.co.uk/all-about/brighton-and-hove-albion-fc) & Hove Albion and [Brentford](https://www.mirror.co.uk/all-about/brentford-fc), with the arrivals of Lisandro Martinez, Tyrell Malacia and Christian Eriksen so far failing to make the slightest bit of difference.

Nevertheless, his arrival would be welcomed by most fans. As a result, the offer from United is being analysed. At face value, you would argue that United are being a little too optimistic in trying to sign Casemiro but the latest developments would suggest that this story actually has a leg to stand on.
