Veteran Brazilian journalist Jorge Nicolas has expressed his opinion on the recent news that Brazilian star Casemiro is expected to return to the Brazilian league. He bluntly pointed out that the possibility of Casemiro's return to the Brazilian league is almost zero, a view that stems mainly from the high annual salary contract he signed at Manchester United. It is reported that Casemiro's annual salary at United tops the team's list at a whopping £18.2 million, which is almost unmatched in the Brazilian league. With this in mind, Jorge Nicolas suggests that fans may want to dismiss these rumors as "airborne".
Despite the fact that Casemiro has not been given a Premier League start since the loss to Liverpool, and that transfer rumors over the summer have hinted at a possible move away from United, even with rumors of a move to a Brazilian club, Jorge Nicholas analyzes that if Casemiro were to make a move, his more likely options would be with clubs that would be able to offer a comparable salary package to his current one, and would be willing to pay a transfer fee to United. He specifically mentions the Saudi Arabian league as one of Casemiro's potential destinations, further emphasizing Casemiro's huge appeal in the transfer market and his thoughtful approach to his salary package.
