Saudi Pro League wants to get their hands on Manchester United superstar to complete their quest of acquiring the top 300 football players in the world
The Saudi Pro League doesn’t have a lot of quality. But, they do have a lot of money which can buy quality. The Saudis have now set their sights on Manchester United superstar Casemiro.
As they begin their second wave of shopping, the SPL is intent on bringing in ‘300 of the best players in the world’ over to their league. As reported by Marca, Casemiro is on their shopping list.
Recently, we have seen some of the biggest names in football join the Saudi Pro League. Cristiano Ronaldo, Neymar Jr., and Karim Benzema are some of the most prominent names who are now playing in the SPL.
🚨 Manchester United football director John Murtough was in Saudi Arabia for transfer talks this month with the club willing to sell Jadon Sancho, Raphaël Varane, Anthony Martial and Casemiro.

Fans are hoping that Manchester United can retain stars like Raphael Varane and Casemiro. The team enjoyed a lot of success last season when the two of these players were at their best.
If Casemiro is still looking like his old self upon his return from injury, Man United must rethink their decision. But then again that completely depends on the player’s performance.
Moreover, if the Saudi Pro League approaches Manchester United with a ridiculous offer like they so often do, no amount of performance will be able to make him stay.
The SPL is also interested in Jadon Sancho. Instead of Casemiro, the team should focus on offloading the 23-year-old on priority.

Manchester United are expected to have a busy transfer window. A deal surrounding Casemiro or Jadon Sancho will help the team afford new players.
Fans will be keeping a close eye on the situation as it begins to develop. Nothing is concrete and things can change a lot by the time January approaches.
