Ronaldo has played with the Brazilian at Manchester United and Real Madrid.
According to reports, Cristiano Ronaldo is attempting to persuade Casemiro, a former Real Madrid and Manchester United teammate, to join him at Al-Nassr rather than go to Major League Soccer (MLS) team Inter Miami to play with Lionel Messi. As his Old Trafford contract is about to expire, the Brazilian has been heavily linked to a summer transfer to the Herons.
According to Marca, the Portuguese superstar is trying to make sure his old colleague relocates to Riyadh. In Ronaldo’s opinion, Casemiro is the defensive pillar needed to ensure Al-Nassr‘s supremacy in the Saudi Pro League.
It is anticipated that the cash package being prepared in the Middle East will be far larger than any other offer made worldwide. Casemiro sees any potential transfer as an opportunity to sign one last big contract and play alongside a reliable partner familiar with his style.
Inter Miami, still, would possibly be a desirable choice for the midfield player. The Herons have established themselves as the main contenders for the services of the 34-year-old.
Ronaldo is willing to convince Casemiro to join Al-Nassr instead of Inter Miami
According to reports, Casemiro is seen by Sir David Beckham’s team as Sergio Busquets’ logical replacement, offering a seasoned presence to support a talented midfield in Florida.
Given their past as El Clásico rivals on the books of Real Madrid and Barcelona, the possibility of Casemiro and Messi teaming up has grown to be an intriguing topic.
In the meantime, Casemiro will continue to concentrate on finishing the season with the Red Devils, who are presently in third position in the Premier League, one point ahead of fourth-placed Aston Villa, before deciding his future.
On April 13, Michael Carrick’s team will take on Leeds United. A victory would put them one step closer to qualifying for the UEFA Champions League for the following season.
Has Ronaldo played with the Brazilian?
Yes, he had played with him at Real Madrid and Man United.
When will the Brazilian leave United?
