While Cristiano Ronaldo could potentially look on his way out of Al Nassr soon, the Portuguese striker may be convinced to stay longer as rumors suggest that the Saudi club is interested in three important players. Al Nassr is linked to sign Raphael Varane, Casemiro, and Kevin De Bruyne. The three Premier League stars who play for Manchester clubs are linked with a move to Saudi Arabia, and Al Nassr is interested in all three players. Casemiro and Varane are very likely to leave Manchester United this summer, while De Bruyne's arrival could be complicated due to the potential fee being over $100 million.

De Bruyne's contract with Manchester City expires next year, and the club has yet to offer him a new one. The Belgian midfielder has reportedly been offered a move to Saudi Arabia for a while, but De Bruyne wants to finish his career in England. Since he arrived at the club in 2015, he has made 377 appearances for the team in all competitions, where he scored 102 goals and provided 168 assists. Many football fans want to see him link up with Ronaldo, who still has a great goal record as a striker.

A Real Madrid throwback with a possible reunion of Casemiro, Varane, and Ronaldo could likely happen since the Brazilian midfielder and the French defender may not fit the future plans of Manchester United. Casemiro's contract with Manchester United in 2026, while Varane's contract expires this summer. The French defender would leave as a free agent, and Casemiro is more likely to go to Saudi Arabia despite signing up for the club in the summer of 2022.

Casemiro and Varane's time at Manchester United so far

Casemiro has made a total of 79 appearances since he joined almost two years ago. He has scored 12 goals and provided nine assists during his time with the Red Devils so far, but the club may look for youth in the defensive midfielder role. Varane has not been seen as a vital defender in the squad, but since his arrival in 2021, he has made a total of 93 appearances in all competitions. He has scored two goals and provided one assist. The last game they started together at Manchester United was the 4-3 loss against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.
