Real Madrid Fans Reflect on Casemiro’s Transfer to Manchester United
Some Real Madrid fans on Reddit have been discussing the transfer of Casemiro to Manchester United and considering it a shrewd piece of business. They believe that Real Madrid got a bargain when they initially signed the Brazilian midfielder and that Manchester United paid a hefty fee for him. This discussion comes as Casemiro is currently injured and couldn’t help Manchester United in their 3-0 loss to Manchester City.
Reddit user “johnlcool” stated that Casemiro originally cost Real Madrid around €5 million, and Brazilian fans were surprised when Madrid signed him. “soysaucepapi” expressed that, in hindsight, it appears as though Real Madrid made a great deal. “ANTEDEGUEMON” added that Casemiro had a reputation for partying and not performing well on the pitch, which led to frustration among Sao Paulo fans.
Real Madrid sold Casemiro to Manchester United for €70 million in the summer of 2022, after initially signing him for €6 million from Sao Paulo in 2013. Despite his current injury, Casemiro had a productive season with four goals and one assist in 11 games.
