The Post: Murtaugh went to the Middle East to discuss Casemiro in December last year, but did not receive any offer before the window closed

The Mail points out that the now-departed John Murtaugh went to the Middle East in December last year to try to sell Casemiro, but Manchester United did not receive an offer until the Saudi transfer window closed.

In fact, Manchester United has been trying to sell Casemiro, but his £375,000-a-week salary has become an insurmountable obstacle.

Only big clubs in Saudi Arabia are likely to be willing to pay such a salary. Casemiro will turn 33 in February and is already showing signs of age.

In fact, John Murtaugh went to the Middle East in December last year to try to explore clubs' interest in Casemiro, but the Mail understands that Manchester United did not receive a specific offer for Casemiro before the Saudi transfer window closed on Monday night.

Casemiro started in Sunday's Manchester United derby, but was replaced by Ten Hag in the first half due to consecutive mistakes.
