Tottenham Wins 'Red Light'
Galatasaray, the defending champion of the Turkiye Schiffer League, is trying to sweep European big league players. This time, a world-class midfielder has appeared.
It is expected to pose a major threat to Tottenham, the No. 1 winner of the UEFA Europa League this season.
Galatasaray is aiming for Manchester United midfielder Casemiro to reinforce the midfield.
Ali said, Galatasaray wants to reinforce the midfield. Juventus' attempt to recruit Western Mekeni is underway. Among the midfielders contacted is Casemiro. Galatasaray is in talks to sign him on a one-year loan.
Casemiro is currently one of the players with hate in Manchester United. He was pointed out as the main cause of the 0-3 complete defeat of the Northwest Derby against Liverpool.
Casemiro started as a central midfielder in the third round of the 2024-2025 Premier League between Manchester United and Liverpool at Old Trafford in Manchester, England, on the 2nd.
Luis Díaz scored the first goal in Liverpool's counterattack, which began with Casemiro's pass miss in the 35th minute of the first half. In the 42nd minute, a mistake was made from Casemiro's side again and Díaz scored his second goal.
Casemiro, who lost two goals by mistake in the first half alone, was replaced by a young prospect named Toby Collier in the second half after the end of the first half. Manchester United lost 0-3 in the 11th minute of the second half when Mohamed Salah scored a decisive goal.
Fans criticized Casemiro with fierce criticism, and coach Erik Turnhach defended Casemiro and claimed that it was a tactical choice.
He often showed me that he's a great character. We all saw great moments with him. He'll show it again and bounce back, Turnhach defended Casemiro.
However, Boardjin, who runs the club, seems to have a different idea.
According to British media Independent reporter Miguel Delaney, Manchester United are considering the possibility of selling Casemiro, and the Saudi professional league is also interested in recruiting him.
The European league's transfer market is currently closed, but the Turkiye and Saudi professional league transfer markets are still open.
For Manchester United, Casemiro's transfer could have a big impact on the midfield. Scott McTominay has already moved to Naples and Manuel Ugarte has joined from PSG.
However, Ali said that Manchester United is trying to take away Casemiro's high weekly salary, which is 350,000 pounds about 616.25 million won, the club's highest weekly salary.
Casemiro is a midfielder who joined Real Madrid in 2013 before joining Manchester United and had an amazing career. He displayed not only outstanding defense but also attack power, and established a legendary midfield line with Toni Kroos and Luka Modric.
Casemiro has won a myriad of trophies at Real, including five UEFA Champions League wins, three La Liga wins, three FIFA Club World Cup wins, three UEFA Super Cups and one Copa Del Rey victory.
Then Casemiro suddenly moved to Manchester United in the summer of 2022 and chose a new challenge.
Casemiro's performance has been outstanding since the first season, but his performance has been questionable since the second half of last season.
Meanwhile, Galatasaray is seeking a loan from Casemiro. Galatasaray, who successfully acquired Victor Osimhen Napoli from Serie A on a one-year loan deal, is seeking another jackpot loan.
In Casemiro's place, Galatasaray can only play Lucas Torreira as a mainstay. There is an 18-year-old prospect named Efe Akman, but he is still inexperienced as he made the first team last season and only played two league games, including last season and this season. That's why he wants an experienced Casemiro. 동행복권파워볼
As a defending champion, Galatasaray will advance to the Champions League finals this season, and it is essential to strengthen its squad. This is why Casemiro, who has a lot of experience in the Champions League, is needed more.
If Galatasaray secures Casemiro after Osimhen, Tottenham is expected to emerge as a strong competitor in the Europa League, which is trying to win with Son Heung-min.
In addition to Osimhen, Galatasaray has Argentina's top striker Mauro Icardi, former Belgian national team Dries Mertons and Vichelle Bachuai. Since there are many Turkiye national teams, it is said that it is possible to win the UEFA club competition for the first time in 25 years since the UEFA Cup in 2000.
In particular, Tottenham and Galatasaray will have a showdown in the main league phase qualifying round. They will have a showdown at Galatasaray's home stadium on Nov. 7. They will then be able to compete again in the tournament.
