Mate I’ve already admitted I was wrong okay
Casemiro (Out)
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
If we keep him we're committing to a 15m amortization expense this season, so the breakeven point (ignoring his wages coming off our books) is actually 15m.
Keep: -15m amortization
Sell: x transfer fee - 30m writedown
Yeah this is how I understand it. If we can get anything north of £30m we should absolutely take it.
Clown better leave
Hope this shambles is a lesson to the higher ups that purchasing Madrid's cast offs never works out, as they only sell players they want rid of, and they only want rid of players for a good reason.
Any amortization analysis also has to take into consideration the amount we'd be amortizing this coming season if we were to keep the player. So the breakeven would be much lower than the ~30m that keeps getting brought up here.
The higher ups that are no longer there
They once got rid of Robben and Sneijder, but I see what you mean with Casemiro and Varane
They got rid of Odegaard too.
This has gone way too quiet for my liking. I hope Saudi finds money soon ffs
The Saudi Arabian transfer window starts on July 17th (so says transfermarkt anyway), so that's around about when I'll start looking for serious reports.
Well other deals already happened but lets see
I think there have been 18 deals confirmed that will bring players to Saudi Arabia and all of them have been free transfers.
If you read the gutter press, the Daily stars & the Daily expresses of the world, they have been constantly reporting that he is asking for a 25gbp compensation to leave.
Try 'Newsnow manutd' on Google, it complies the news from every source, including every shit one.
That could be very big for our spending availability, especially if we get a decent fee. Fee plus wages savings would be chunky
It could just about cover the Ugarte deal if we're lucky.
In real terms, hopefully (fee might be less but wages way more)… … in PSR terms, we’d be quids in
Shame to see his fall off this year, what a player he was. But yeah it's time to move on for all parties I think. Hopefully this gets done.
Around 150-200m spending power, according to Boehlynomics
Him, Sancho and Varane have combined salaries of £50m a year alone, if we take their potential replacements into account it will save the club at least £25-£30m annually.
He was crucial last to last season with his goal contribution and a big example of getting us a spot in the champions league..Let’s not forget that…and all of them were crucial goals …
I understand that memories are short and he has regressed over the last year but your hatred is a bit unwanted…
If a good bid comes our way, why not, but don’t undermine the player that we signed as he was great in his first season with us …We knew that we were signing a player on his last legs

Add Eriksen to the mix and there’s another £7.5m saved too.
Plus we might get between 20-30m, which is half of a young midfield talent
The costs saved from selling Casemiro is quite significant. Combined yearly amortisation costs and salary are 34m for Casemiro. For comparison, Antony costs us 27m/year, De Ligt looks to cost us 17m-20m a year.
Selling Casemiro for around 30m would free up space for a new 100m signing.

Do not have big hopes on him leaving. I could see him staying beyond the summer. If we can utilize him better and give him a fewer amount of game I actually thing he could still be a good asset for us
Bailed us out vs Forest in the FA Cup too last season.
I can't help but love Casemiro. He's the perfect balance of class and shithouse. Just a shame he seemed to drop off last season, but I still think he's got the know how and experience we need.
May still have something to offer but his wages are not worth what he brought to the table last season
Gave us a strong reminder on how it's like to have a world class midfielder again, so will be forever grateful for that, but hopefully we manage to sell him this summer.
I don't get the hate for Casemiro.
He had a great first season with some ups and downs. The second season is hard to judge as no player really stood out positively.
If he leaves and we can get a younger midfielder, fine, but I wouldn't consider him a failure or a bad signing.

If he goes I'm OK with that as long as we get a replacement. If he stays I'm fine with that too as he surely can't be as bad as last season.
No hate from me (and I'd hope many). Clear drop off in form and think we can all agree he's not going to get back to his world class form due to age/fitness, but was amazing to see him strut his stuff in his first season here.
I don’t see any reason for hate. He wasn’t found lacking in effort or application. But I disagree that the second season was difficult to judge. He was objectively terrible. Mainoo and Bruno were good, so it wasn’t impossible to perform let alone not be terrible. But basically, age caught up with him as it often does - rapidly.
We probably do a classic ManUnited and don’t sell anyone again. Our bench will still have Scottyboy, old Case, Johnny E and Co
From one of the best DMs in the world to one of the worst DMs in the PL within a matter of months. I've never seen a drop off quite like it. Maybe Alexis Sanchez is the closest comparison?
Hopefully his reputation at Madrid is enough for Saudi to give us a chunk of cash for him. If you look at our player sales over the years, Morgan Schneiderlin is the only instance where it felt like we got more than we deserved.
