It’s no wonder that Casemiro is leaving Real Madrid for Manchester United when you look at how much they’ll be paying him.
Casemiro, against all odds, has accepted to leave European champions Real Madrid in order to sign along the dotted line with 20th-place Manchester United.
At first glance, you’d have thought that the Brazilian would need to get his head checked, but there’s 350,000 reasons why the move makes sense for Casemiro.
As is reported by The Sun, Casemiro will be upping his salary considerably by penning a whopping £350k-a-week contract with the struggling Red Devils.
With Casemiro now 30-years-old, this is likely to be his last BIG contract, and he may well have sensed a Florentino Perez-engineered paycut on the horizon.
Instead, he will be behind only Cristiano Ronaldo on Man United’s payroll, with this proposed four-year contract also set to take him into his swansong years.
Though nobody likes to see mercenaries at their clubs, Man United fans will concede that this is the only way they can attract top talent in this day and age…
