Ronaldo issues Casemiro’s demand
Former Manchester United striker Cristiano Ronaldo has demanded Al-Nassr make a move for midfielder Casemiro. The former Real Madrid star has fallen down the pecking order this season.
A move to Saudi Arabia has been on the agenda over the past few months, and Ronaldo is now keen on a reunion. According to Foot Mercato, the Portuguese have spoken to the club hierarchy about a potential move.
Casemiro would be open to a fresh challenge, but a switch appears to be difficult in January. Saudi rules on foreign players mean they would have to make space in their squad first, while the midfielder still has three-and-a-half years left on his contract at Old Trafford.

Martial could have played last game
Anthony Martial’s Manchester United career could potentially be over with the Frenchman set for surgery. The French striker has been struggling with an ongoing hip issue.
He is currently in dialogue with the Red Devils’ medical team over the best course of action. Should he go under the knife, that could potentially rule him out for the remainder of the season.
Martial’s contract is due to expire at the end of the season, which could mean he has already played his final game for the Red Devils. The former Monaco star last appeared for the club in Manchester United’s 3-0 defeat to Bournemouth at Old Trafford back in December.
