Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag is reportedly keen on signing Real Madrid midfielder Casemiro, according to various reports.

Ten Hag is keen on signing a defensive midfielder this summer to strengthen Manchester United’s midfield and has identified Casemiro as the ideal signing.

According to The Telegraph, even though Casemiro has three years left on his contract, Real may be prepared to sell the 30 year old midfielder having signed Aurélien Tchouaméni this summer and with Eduardo Camavinga and Fede Valverde already at the club. 

It is believed a transfer fee of around £50million will be enough to convince Real Madrid to sell the midfielder to Manchester United.

Whether Casemiro wants to leave Real and step away from Champions League football remains to be seen.
