Manchester United willing to pay close to £60 million for Real Madrid’s Casemiro with the midfielder tempted by five-year contract on offer... and the Spanish giants would want to replace the Brazilian with Newcastle star Bruno Guimaraes

Real Madrid are still waiting for Casemiro to make a decision on his future after Manchester United approached him earlier this week.

Casemiro has so far been silent on the possibility of a switch to the Premier League.

It’s understood the prospect of signing a five-year contract aged 30, something previous treatment of Sergio Ramos and Cristiano Ronaldo shows him will not happen at Real Madrid, is highly attractive despite any move to Old Trafford meaning he forsakes Champions League football.

30-year-old midfielder Casemiro is considering a move to Manchester United

Casemiro has a contract until 2025 and that is likely to be his last at the club, save for the year-on-year renewals that Madrid offers players over 30, and that Luka Modric is currently accepting.
