The announcement made by Manchester United concerning Carlos Casemiro’s transfer to Manchester United for a fee of € 59.5m, shocked some people, as many fans thought that Casemiro might insist on staying in Real Madrid.
Ben Foster, ex-Manchester United goalkeeper has stated that the reason Casemiro Joined Manchester United is because of money. Considering Real Madrid’s reputation, any player would give an arm and leg to play for the club. Manchester United used the promise of a weekly salary of €350,000 to entice the player. It will be difficult for any player to resist such a mouth-watering offer. Because why will Casemiro leave a club as strong as Real Madrid for Manchester United who is still basking in their past glory?
Coupled with the fact that, Manchester United is trying to build a strong team, Casemiro should be ready to work his socks off, as the season didn’t start well for Manchester United with them being at the bottom list of the premier league list, as they failed their first two matches at the start of the season
Speaking on talkSPORT Drive, Foster said: “I read a thing in the paper and United’s wage bill, have a look at this bad boy.
“I’d take a fraction of what some of these guys are on!
“It’s crazy money and even Casemiro, Casemiro doesn’t want to leave Real Madrid. He doesn’t. Why would you want to leave Real Madrid?
“I know it’s Manchester United, I know this, but Manchester United aren’t what they used to be.
“They might statistically be the biggest club in the world and name, but they are not what they used to be.
“Why would you want to leave Real Madrid?
“The only reason why you’d want to leave is because someone’s said ‘here’s £300k a week, you’re 30 years old, here’s a four or five-year deal.”
Foster added: “It screams a little bit of a mercenary, but Casemiro isn’t a mercenary, he’s a center-mid who will work his socks”
Manchester United is to face Liverpool on Monday, fans are expecting something good. Jurgen Klopp the head coach of Liverpool has said that Manchester United would play like wounded lions on the field. Fans are sure that the match is going to be a really tough game, as Liverpool didn’t start the season on a good note, their two matches ended in a draw.
