Manchester United is close to completing the €60m signing of Casemiro from Real Madrid.
The Red Devils have been keen to add a new holding midfielder to their squad in this transfer window.
They have spent much of the window trying to add Barcelona’s Frenkie de Jong to their squad.
However, the Dutchman is reluctant to leave, and they attempted to add Adrien Rabiot to their squad.
The Frenchman wanted more money, and they have now turned their attention towards a move for Casemiro.
The Brazilian has won all the club trophies at Real Madrid, and he might look for a new challenge.
Matchplug understands he is willing to make the move to Old Trafford, and he has informed his club.
The move makes him one of the highest-paid players in Europe, and it also sees Madrid make a profit from their outlay to add him to their squad from FC Porto despite having enjoyed the best of his career.
