Ronaldo wants to reunite with Casemiro
According to the Telegraph, Ronaldo wants to reunite with Casemiro at Al-Nassr. CR7 convinced the club's management to welcome his former teammate back to play. The two have a good relationship when they conquered many titles together at Real Madrid. The duo also reunited when CR7 was playing for MU.
A few days ago, UOL said that Casemiro agreed to leave MU in January. Al-Nassr will have to compete with many other clubs in Saudi Arabia such as Al-Ittihad, Al-Hilal, Al-Ahli and Al-Ettifaq to get the Brazilian midfielder. Even the newly promoted team Al-Qadsiyah is also closely monitoring Casemiro's situation.
Under Saudi Pro League rules, each club can only register a maximum of eight foreign players. If Al-Nassr wants to sign Casemiro, they will have to sell or drop one of their current foreign players. Al-Nassr recently sold Seko Fofana to Rennes, while Anderson Talisca is also set to join José Mourinho's Fenerbahce.
Casemiro's contract runs until June 2026. Before that, he joined MU for a fee of up to 60 million pounds. The former Real Madrid star was an important member and shone under Erik ten Hag in the 2022/2023 season. Currently, coach Amorim prefers to use Mainoo and Manuel Ugarte in the midfield.
The Telegraph said that MU is listening to all offers regarding Casemiro's case. If they succeed in selling this midfielder in January, the "Red Devils" can speed up the recruitment of left-back Nuno Mendes of Paris Saint-Germain.
