Amidst the recent rumors about the possible return of Brazilian star Casemiro to the league of his homeland, veteran Brazilian journalist Jorge Nicolas has spoken out and revealed the truth. He asserted that Casemiro's return to the Brazilian league is highly unlikely, an assertion that stems from his high salary at Manchester United. Casemiro has reportedly become the highest paid player in the United squad, earning a whopping £18.2 million per year, a salary package that is almost untouchable in the Brazilian league. In light of this, Jorge Nicolas has advised fans to "not take such rumors seriously."
Despite the fact that Casemiro has not been given a Premier League start since a defeat against Liverpool and has been rumored to be on the verge of a possible departure this summer, even with rumors of a number of Brazilian clubs, Jorge Nicholas analyzes that if Casemiro were to leave United, he would be more likely to join clubs that could offer a similar salary to what he is currently being paid and would be willing to pay a hefty transfer fee. He specifically mentioned the Saudi League as one of Casemiro's possible destinations, a reference that fully reflects Casemiro's huge appeal in the transfer market and the importance he places on his salary package.
