Unexpected Development: Saudi Arabia Pursuing 3 Notable Figures from Manchester United
Saudi Arabia Shifts Focus to English Powerhouse Manchester United
In an unexpected turn, three key players from the esteemed Manchester United are now being considered for potential moves to the Saudi Roshan Professional League in the upcoming period.
The Saudi league has emerged as a destination for top global stars, notably highlighted by the recent transfer of Portuguese legend Cristiano Ronaldo to Al-Nasr Club in early 2023.
Reports from the 90min network indicate that the Saudi Investment Fund is actively pursuing the signings of Brazilian midfielder Casemiro, Portuguese midfielder Bruno Fernandes, and French forward Anthony Martial from Manchester United.
It has been revealed that Manchester United is reluctant to part ways with Fernandes at present, yet remains open to negotiating the transfers of Casemiro and Martial during the upcoming January 2024 transfer window.
Manchester United appears willing to sell Casemiro if a substantial fee is offered, aiming to recoup a significant portion of the €60 million spent to acquire the Brazilian from Real Madrid in the summer of 2022.
Regarding Martial, Manchester United is inclined to entertain offers for his transfer in the winter Mercato. This decision aims to secure a financial return instead of risking a free departure when his contract concludes next summer.
Manchester United is currently enduring a challenging sports season in 2023-2024, sitting in eighth place in the English Premier League standings after 11 rounds.
