Cristiano Ronaldo pushes for Manchester United midfielder to join him at Al-Nassr

Cristiano Ronaldo wants to bolster the Al-Nassr squad and is personally pushing for two players to join him at the Saudi club including Manchester United’s Casemiro.

Al Nassr suffered a setback in the Saudi King’s Cup final last week, succumbing to a 5-4 defeat against rivals Al Hilal in a penalty shoot-out.

Casemiro, who remains contracted to Old Trafford until 2026, may view this potential transition as an opportunity for a fresh start, especially after being excluded from Brazil’s Copa America squad.
