Casemiro ready to end Man Utd stay and agree January move to Saudi Pro League after falling out of favour under Ruben Amorim

<p>Casemiro joined Manchester United from Real Madrid in the summer of 2022 in what was expected to be a major step for the Red Devils towards improving their dwindling fortunes. However, the five-time Champions League winner has not been able to replicate his Los Blancos form at Old Trafford and is no longer in Ruben Amorim's plans for the future.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>As per Brazilian outlet <a href="https://www.uol.com.br/esporte/colunas/mercado-da-bola/2024/12/30/fundo-saudita-esta-decidido-a-contratar-casemiro-em-janeiro.htm" target="_blank">UOL</a>, Casemiro has now agreed to leave Manchester United during the January transfer window, and the former Real Madrid midfielder has received a lot of interest from Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund (PIF) for either Al-Nassr, Al-Ittihad, Al-Hilal, Al-Ahli or Al-Ettifaq. Meanwhile Saudi Pro League newcomers Al-Qadsiyah are also interested.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>However, the Saudi Pro League clubs will still have to figure out how to sign Casemiro as the SPL announced that <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-in/lists/saudi-clubs-major-problem-potential-moves-man-utd-marcus-rashford-liverpool-mohamed-salah/blt1571e77692c7ce8e" target="_blank">none of their clubs have any vacant spots left for foreign players</a>, and will have to sell or de-register one of their current players to sign the Brazilian in January.</p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>Fans will have to wait and see if Casemiro does indeed leave the club in January. The <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/man-utd-player-ratings-vs-newcastle-joshua-zirkzee-casemiro-lisandro-martinez/blt1c351d29dba2bab4" target="_blank">Brazilian was part of a dismal United performance against Newcastle</a> last time out and may drop out of the team once again on Sunday when the Red Devils take on Liverpool.</p>
