CASE CLOSED Man Utd ‘agree four-year contract with £60m Real Madrid star Casemiro and will pay midfielder £290K A WEEK’
MANCHESTER UNITED have agreed a four-year contract with Casemiro, according to reports.
And the Red Devils will splash out a whopping £290,000 per week on the midfielder.
Casemiro is on the brink of completing his big-money move to Manchester United
Casemiro, 30, looks set to complete the move away from Real Madrid where he has won every trophy available including five Champions Leagues.
It is understood United will pay around £60million for the Brazilian who is keen to explore a new adventure.
Casemiro will earn around £15.2m per year until 2026 – which works out as just north of £290,000 a week.
He will be reunited with Raphael Varane at Old Trafford after their spell together in Madrid.
United initially bid £50m for the former Porto loanee.
However, Los Blancos were determined to push the fee up for the player they signed from Sao Paulo in 2013 – especially because he has three years remaining on his Bernabeu deal.
