The negotiation between the player and the Argentine club is considered difficult due to the high salary, but the management led by club legend Riquelme is persistent and continues to seek an agreement with the midfielder, who was part of the squad that won the 2022 World Cup.
While negotiations progress, Roma has already identified Casemiro as their top priority. According to Sky Sports, Roma prefers to sign the 32-year-old Brazilian on loan until the end of the 2024/25 season. Casemiro is reportedly open to leaving Manchester United and joining Roma, but the English club favors a permanent transfer.
However, a third element is in the mix. According to the Spanish newspaper Marca, one of the conditions set by Cristiano Ronaldo to renew with Al-Nassr in Saudi Arabia is the signing of the Brazilian midfielder.
Casemiro joined Manchester United in 2022 for €60 million. After a strong start that earned praise, the midfielder began to face criticism at the beginning of the 2023/24 season, with the English press even calling for his departure. At 32 years old, he has a contract with the Red Devils until the end of the 2025/26 season. Be ahead of the game with BB Score.
