If they end up signing Casemeiro it will apparently be for around 70mill fee and 450k a week in wages for 5 years. That's pushing a package of near on 200mill before even taking into account agent fees and signing on fee.
Casemeiro is going to be 31 this season, there's no way he'd go to United from Madrid for anything other than a tonne of money. This is exactly one of the reasons United ended up in this mess, paying big money for a name and a player going there for no other reason than money. If Casemeiro goes the way the rest of their transfers do, which is likely given the reasons he'd be going there, they are potentially going to be stuck with a player until he is 36 on an astronomical wage.
They just don't learn do they.
