Rumors have been swirling lately that Brazilian star Casemiro could return to the Brazilian league, however, veteran Brazilian media personality Jorge Nicolas has made a categorical statement on the matter. He asserted that the possibility of Casemiro's return to the Brazilian league is almost nil, a view that stems from the hefty annual contract he signed at Manchester United. It is reported that Casemiro earns the most in the team at United, with an annual salary of £18.2 million, which is almost unmatched in the Brazilian domestic league. In light of this, Jorge Nicolas has advised fans to "never take such rumors seriously."
Although Casemiro has not started a Premier League game since a loss to Liverpool and there have been rumors of his possible departure this summer, even with Brazilian domestic teams, Jorge Nicolas analyzes that if Casemiro were to leave United, he would prefer joining a club that could offer a salary that matches his current one and would be willing to pay a high transfer fee to United. He specifically mentioned the Saudi Arabian league as a possible next stop for Casemiro, a proposition that highlights Casemiro's appeal in the transfer market and the importance he places on his salary package.
