In the midst of the furor that has been stirring up in Brazilian soccer about Casemiro's possible return to the Brazilian league, renowned journalist Jorge Nicola has spoken out decisively to reveal the truth. He asserted that the chances of Casemiro's return to the Brazilian league are almost nil, a statement that stems from his current lucrative annual contract at Manchester United. It is reported that Casemiro has become the highest paid player in the United team, earning a whopping £18.2 million per year, a salary that is almost unmatched in the Brazilian league. Thus, Jorge Nicolas exhorted the fans: "Don't hold your breath for such rumors."
Despite the fact that Casemiro has not been given a Premier League start since the loss to Liverpool and there have been rumors about his possible departure this summer, even with rumors of a Brazilian club, Jorge Nicholas analyzes that if Casemiro were to leave, a more reasonable speculation would be to join a club that would offer a similar salary to the one he is currently earning and would be willing to pay a hefty transfer fee to Manchester United. He specifically mentions the Saudi League, which could be one of Casemiro's options, mapping his appeal in the transfer market and the importance he places on his salary package.
