According to a disturbing rumor, Casemiro “regrets” joining Manchester United since he has seen the “institutional instability” there.
Casemiro reportedly has issues with Man Utd.
Consider leaving the club.
WHAT OCCURED?
The Brazilian made a significant impact under Erik ten Hag in his first season at Old Trafford, leading United to a top-four finish and Carabao Cup victory. The Brazilian joined to Old Trafford from Real Madrid in a high-priced move last summer. However, Casemiro has had a difficult season and, according to the Catalan newspaper EL Nacional, “regrets” joining the Red Devils. According to the source, Casemiro’s time in Manchester will be “short-lived” because he is unhappy with the way the team is operated off the field.
THE BIGGER PICTURE: Joao Neves of Benfica is apparently a player United are interested in signing as a replacement for Casemiro, whose performances have dropped dramatically despite his apparent loss of faith. According to El Nacional, the club has already looked into the prospect of acquiring Neves and has discovered that they would have to shell out at least €70 million (£61 million/$74 million) to do so.
THEN WHAT?
Given that Casemiro has a contract with United through 2026, they are unlikely to sell him in the January transfer window. However, they might submit a formal offer for Neves, which might prompt a summer evaluation of Casemiro’s future.
