Manchester United are closing in on the signing of Real Madrid midfielder Casemiro for 60m euros (£50.7m) plus 10m euros (£8.5m) in add ons.

Talks have progressed quickly and United are optimistic the deal for the Brazil international, 30, will be completed in the next few days.

Casemiro has been with Real since 2013, winning three La Liga titles and five Champions Leagues.

United are bottom of the Premier League and host Liverpool on Monday.

Casemiro would become one of the United's top earners if he completes the move and would sign a four-year contract with the option of an additional year.

After talks to sign Juventus' Adrien Rabiot collapsed over the player's demands, United have turned their attention to Casemiro as they look to address weaknesses in Erik ten Hag's midfield.

Although Casemiro has a contract that runs to 2025, Real are mindful of the scale of United's offer of a contract that could extend to 2027 once the option of an additional season is added on. They would not stand in his way if he decided to accept.

He would arrive at United on a big salary in keeping with his status as one of 30 players nominated for this year's Ballon D'Or, even if his place at Real is under threat from new arrival Aurelien Tchouameni.

One of the best defensive midfield players in the world, Casemiro has been effective in a team that drops deep when it does not have possession, which Real tend to do with Luka Modric and Toni Kroos in their team.

Casemiro's impact can be seen by looking at Opta statistics to compare his figures against those of other central midfielders in La Liga last season.

The Brazil international ranked top for successful blocks, placed second for tackles made, behind Barcelona's Sergio Busquets, and also came third overall for possession won. Real Sociedad's Mikel Merino was first and Busquets runner-up in that latter category.

He also contributed to Real's attacks, ranking fifth for forward passes and joint-sixth for shots among the league's central midfielders.

Casemiro spent a season away from the Bernabeu on loan at Portuguese side Porto in 2014-15 but returned to Spain the following season after Real activated his buy-back clause.

He has made 222 appearances for the Spanish giants and scored 24 goals.

Good signing. Though I'm actually surprised he wants to leave real Madrid for United. But then again, the things that motivates footballers differ from player to player.

Good signing if the deal goes through but 60million is too much considering his age.

Perez is a transfer guru…… he doesn’t buy cheap neither does he sell cheap.

The money is enough motivation at this peak age. Casemiro has won it all already. Let him make more bucks before retiring.

Ok

Another player is about to touch a trophy for the last time. Should we tell him? Thank God he has many trophies in his cabinet already.

Good for the club, but i still believe that Man United needs a good CB, Maguire is not suppose to be in that Team, unless Man U want to use England sentiment to destroy their club.. A good DM like Casemiro cant do the job alone, he needs a Frank de Jong too.

Another bad market for Man U

Manure need defender's

Okay.

I won't advise any player to go to Man U at this moment, its a bad decision

I thought it's only Chelsea that loves buying old players.

Oh

Bitcoin's a boss is here... Pi

If I were him, I wouldn't, even if it's a trillion dollar ..

Any sensible player should avoid MAN U for now...

it pays him and it pays Man U. But still Man U no go see top 10 this season

Chei u wan leave real madrid come useless club oya naa e be like man u go soon inherit all the useless old players from Madrid, 2014 to 2018 galactico era ....maybe them fit use them fight properly for relegation

Smart business from Madrid but Man United signing a 30 year old for that amount?

hag is seriously trying to rebuild MU

First position man utd should have strengthen before going for L.martinez n eriksen. The only issue is his age. He is 30. Kna pension hin cm chop.
