Despite attracting intense interest from several clubs across the globe, the ambitious project in Miami, paired with the chance to unite with an all-star roster featuring the likes of Lionel Messi, proved too strong to resist.

The deal is currently progressing through its final steps, signaling a major coup for the American side.

Casemiro leaves a Man United fan favourite

Casemiro will leave Manchester United as a true fan favourite, leaving a huge void to fill in the heart of the midfield.

Arriving from Real Madrid in 2022, the five-time Champions League winner quickly won over the Old Trafford faithful with his combative style, defensive masterclasses, and a knack for scoring crucial goals.

While his form dipped slightly briefly, Casemiro returned to his best in his last season.

Playing a key role under interim manager Michael Carrick, the midfielder experienced a spectacular return to peak form, scoring a career-best nine goals and guiding the Red Devils to a third-place finish and Champions League qualification.

Leaving on a high as his contract expires, Casemiro’s legacy at United is firmly secured, and fans will long remember the elite mentality he brought to the club.
