Casemiro, end of journey, Manchester United activates the operation, 61 million

Manchester United continues to be immersed in a serious crisis of results. Since the already distant golden era of Sir Alex Ferguson on the bench, the Red Devils have not been able to lift any major title, remaining in the shadow of a Manchester City that with Pep Guardiola ‘s project has been capable of becoming one of the winningest teams in recent football history. A combination of aspects that forces United’s technical secretariat to reconsider its future.

Casemiro does not create consensus for Manchester United…

The last big signings that Manchester United have made have not gone well and this is reflected in the team’s game, very poor in terms of offensive and defensive resources. It is true that additions such as Bruno Fernandes , who is already one of the captains of the team, or Lisandro Martínez have worked, but in general terms the sports area has chained several mistakes in the last signing markets that are now costing expensive

One of the most obvious of these has been the case of Casemiro . Two summers ago, Manchester United decided to pay 80 million euros for the Brazilian footballer of Real Madrid , an exorbitant figure for a footballer who had already passed his best years.

The Carioca player was supposed to become one of the team’s leaders, but several months have passed since his debut and Old Trafford has not been able to enjoy the dominant Casemiro who lifted 5 Champions Leagues with Real Madrid.

Faced with this situation, the Manchester United board is considering signing a footballer who can act in the pivot position . In fact, according to the digital portal Fichajes.net, the English club is already clear about who should be its next target.

This is Joao Neves , a Portuguese footballer of only 19 years who is signing a great season at Benfica , one of the teams that is exporting more talent in recent seasons.

The young Portuguese footballer is one of the biggest promises in European football and Manchester United could be willing to pay more than 60 million euros for his services.

It is true that Joao Neves has not yet been tested on the big stage, but what is clear is that the Red Devils team must start looking to the future with the addition of young players, who can perform at a high level during the next decade.
