How much?! Casemiro in line for whopping pay rise to rival Cristiano Ronaldo despite Man Utd trying to sell Brazilian amid Saudi Pro League links

<p>The <a href="https://www.dailystar.co.uk/sport/football/man-utd-casemiro-wages-ronaldo-35165495" target="_blank">Daily Star</a> states if United win the Europa League, with Ruben Amorim's men <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/man-utd-player-ratings-vs-athletic-club-bruno-fernandes-alejandro-harry-maguire-casemiro/blt3fb89687d7d01bf4" target="_blank">currently in the semi-finals</a>, Casemiro will receive a 25 per cent pay rise due to a clause in his contract. The report states that the midfielder will see his wages rise to around £500,000-a-week - which is what club legend Cristiano Ronaldo got during his second spell at Old Trafford.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>While Casemiro had a good first season at United, the 33-year-old has not lived up to his hefty wages and huge £70 million ($88m) transfer fee from Real Madrid in 2022. The veteran has been <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/highly-disrespectful-jamie-carragher-slammed-rio-ferdinand-defends-man-utd-casemiro-leave-football/bltdb9dd8e31dacc63c#cs984afbe154ff7fbe" target="_blank">heavily criticised by pundits</a> for his displays, and it seems he is on the decline, with the <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/casemiro-gbp650-000-a-week-offer-to-leave-man-utd-cristiano-ronaldo-al-nassr/bltae9a4807e521ff6b" target="_blank">club said to be keen on moving him on soon</a>. So to potentially receive this huge wage hike would be quite telling about the Red Devils' state of affairs.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>The report states this could cause a problem for United, who may yet sell Casemiro to the Saudi Pro League, with head coach Amorim being asked to slash the wage bill by minority owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe.</p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>Casemiro's United will hope to advance to the Europa League final this week when they host Athletic Club on Thursday with a 3-0 first-leg cushion.</p>
