Casemiro Already Has a New Team Lined Up After Manchester United Exit: Set to Join Big Stars
The Brazilian midfielder confirmed he will not remain with the Red Devils next season, and his next destination appears to be in the USA.
The most intriguing rumor currently circulating in the United States is the potential arrival of Casemiro at Inter Miami CF. Reports suggest that the franchise, co-owned by David Beckham, is seriously evaluating the Brazilian as a free agent.
The Beckham Blueprint: Replacing a Legend
Following the departure of Sergio Busquets, the "Herons" are in desperate need of a tactical anchor—someone with the hierarchy and experience to organize a star-studded midfield. Casemiro is viewed as the natural successor.
- The Messi Factor: The opportunity to play alongside Lionel Messi remains the ultimate draw for elite veterans.
- Tactical Fit: Just as Busquets provided the "security blanket" for Messi and Jordi Alba, Casemiro’s ability to break up play and distribute efficiently would allow Miami’s creative stars to roam freely.
- The DP Hurdle: Economically, this is a complex puzzle. Casemiro is currently one of the highest earners at Old Trafford. For Inter Miami to make this work under MLS regulations, they would likely need to utilize a Designated Player (DP) slot to accommodate his salary.
A Saudi Reunion or a Romantic Homecoming?
If Miami isn't the destination, two other heavyweights are ready to pounce:
- Al-Nassr FC (Saudi Arabia): The lure of the Saudi Pro League is impossible to ignore, especially with the possibility of a reunion with Cristiano Ronaldo. Al-Nassr has the financial muscle to match, or even exceed, Casemiro’s current Manchester United wages. After their successful years together at Real Madrid, a "Last Dance" in Riyadh seems like a logical move for both parties.
- São Paulo FC (Brazil): For those who believe in romance, a return to the club where it all began is on the table. São Paulo is reportedly tempted to offer a two-year deal to bring their "prodigal son" home. After over a decade of dominating Europe, the sentimental pull of finishing his career in Brazil could outweigh the financial benefits of other offers.
The Professional to the End
Despite the noise regarding his future, Casemiro has been vocal about his commitment to the Red Devils. In a message to the Old Trafford faithful, he expressed his gratitude for the support and emphasized that he still has goals to achieve before his time in the UK officially ends.
While his tenure at Manchester United has seen both moments of world-class brilliance and struggles with the pace of the Premier League, his pedigree remains undisputed. Whether he chooses the "Magic City" of Miami, the dunes of Saudi Arabia, or the heart of Brazil, Casemiro’s signature will be the most coveted prize of the summer.
