Transfer News, Rumors: Man Utd’s Casemiro U-Turn; Real Madrid Decide New Top Target

Manchester United are exploring a cut-price swap that would send on-loan winger Marcus Rashford to Barcelona while bringing 20-year-old midfielder Marc Casadó to Old Trafford. According to El Nacional, United would accept only €10 million in cash alongside Casadó, valuing the overall package at a steep discount from Rashford’s original market valuation.

In a separate development that could reshape the club’s summer plans, United are preparing an about-face regarding Casemiro. Despite widespread speculation that the Brazilian midfielder would be moved on, TEAMtalk reports that United will open talks over a new deal aimed at keeping the 32-year-old in Manchester beyond the current window.

Across the continent, Real Madrid have recalibrated their recruitment priorities. Fichajes indicates that Chelsea’s Enzo Fernández has leapfrogged other midfield targets to become Madrid’s primary objective, with the Spanish giants on alert as the Argentine’s Stamford Bridge future grows uncertain. Madrid are simultaneously bracing for offers on Eduardo Camavinga, with Liverpool circling at the €50 million valuation placed by the La Liga side.

Premier League rivals are also jockeying for position. Manchester City have withdrawn from the race for Ousmane Dembélé, leaving Chelsea with a clear path to the Paris Saint-Germain winger. Crystal Palace have slapped an £70 million-plus price tag on Adam Wharton, while Aston Villa and Everton are ready to duel for Jack Grealish, who is angling for a permanent exit from the Etihad. Nathan Aké, another City departure candidate, is wanted by both Milan clubs.

Elsewhere, Juventus are open to selling Jonathan David, with Nottingham Forest, Tottenham and West Ham monitoring the Canada striker. Spurs remain keen on Roma’s Niccolò Pisilli and could dangle Destiny Udogie in a swap. Newcastle have dispatched emissaries to Brazil to negotiate Palmeiras midfielder Allan, and Bayern Munich could sanction Michael Olise’s exit for a staggering €160 million, with PSG weighing a €120 million bid as they prepare to offload Dembélé.

Finally, Atlético Madrid are ready to trigger a €100 million move for Marseille forward Mason Greenwood, a deal that would funnel significant funds back to Manchester United.
