The report further states that Casemiro has told Florentino Perez to accept any good offer that comes in for him from Manchester United.

The Main Reasons Why Casemiro Wants to Join Manchester United

There are three factors pushing the former Sao Paulo defensive midfielder to seriously think about moving to Manchester.

The first reason is that Casemiro feels his time at Real Madrid is over after winning 15 major trophies, including 5 Champions League titles.

Secondly, 30-year-old Casemiro wants to experience a new environment. This is the main reason that persuaded Raphael Varane to make the switch to England last summer.

Lastly, Manchester United are offering a massive salary that is making it difficult for Casemiro to decline.

Real Madrid Set Hefty Transfer Fee for Midfielder Casemiro

Meanwhile, Real Madrid have have slapped a price tag of €70m on the midfielder, but the final transfer money could be lowered if Casemiro asks Madrid to sell him.

Casemiro has been with Madrid since 2013 when he signed from Sao Paulo. At that stage he only cost the La Liga champions €6m. Since then, Casemiro has formed a formidable partnership with Toni Kroos and Luka Modrić in the midfield. They have been described as The Bermuda Triangle bu coach Carlo Ancelotti.

Ancelotti also has Federico Valverde, Eduardo Camavinga, Dani Ceballos and Aurélien Tchouameni at his disposal in the midfield should Casemiro be sold.
