Al-Nassr expresses their interest in acquiring the services of Casemiro and Aaron Wan-Bissaka from Manchester United, while Karim Benzema desires a ‘temporary’ move, according to reports.

Jadon Sancho has made the decision to return to Borussia Dortmund on loan from Manchester United, stating that he believes it is the right move for his career. The English winger joined United in the summer of 2021 but has struggled to make a significant impact at Old Trafford. Sancho’s loan move back to Dortmund will provide him with the opportunity to regain his form and confidence.

There are reports suggesting that Saudi Pro League side Al-Nassr are interested in signing Manchester United’s Casemiro and Aaron Wan-Bissaka. United’s football director, John Murtough, recently traveled to Saudi Arabia to discuss potential transfers, as the club is open to selling a number of players.

Al-Nassr are particularly keen on Casemiro, who currently earns £375,000 a week. Cristiano Ronaldo’s influence at the club could play a role in attracting the Brazilian midfielder. United are willing to sell Casemiro this summer if they can recoup a significant portion of the £70m fee they paid to Real Madrid for his services.

Meanwhile, Al-Nassr could also make a move for Wan-Bissaka, after their £20m bid for Tottenham’s Emerson Royal was rejected. Wan-Bissaka’s future at Old Trafford is uncertain, as United triggered a 12-month extension in his contract but have not offered him a new long-term deal. Talks between the player’s agents and the club have not yielded positive results.

Karim Benzema, who currently plays for Saudi Arabian side Al-Ittihad, is reportedly seeking a temporary move away from the club. The French striker has been training alone after being excluded from the squad for arriving 17 days late from his holiday. Benzema is now looking for a short-term move, with his former club Lyon being a potential destination.

Benzema has attributed his late arrival to a cyclone that affected his vacation in Mauritius. However, Al-Ittihad claims that the player had already missed three training sessions prior to the end of the year. The club’s decision to exile Benzema came after a heavy defeat against Cristiano Ronaldo’s Al Nassr.

Newcastle United have rejected Bayern Munich’s offer of £13m for Kieran Trippier. The English international is expected to remain at the club beyond the January transfer window. However, Newcastle could still consider offers for Miguel Almiron as they aim to comply with the Premier League’s financial rules and create space for a summer rebuild.

Trippier is open to a move to Bayern Munich, where he would join his compatriots Harry Kane and Eric Dier. But it seems unlikely that a deal will materialize, as Newcastle is not willing to budge from their valuation of the player. On the other hand, Almiron is attracting interest from Saudi clubs Al-Shabab and Al-Ahli, but the Paraguayan winger prefers to stay at Newcastle until at least the summer.

Mason Greenwood could be on the verge of a “dream move” to Barcelona this summer, according to reports. The Manchester United forward is currently on loan at Getafe and is expected to leave the club permanently at the end of the season. Greenwood is also eager to represent England again in the future, but in the short term, a move to Barcelona could be in the cards.

Barcelona is keen to sign Greenwood, and the player himself is eager to make the move. The next step is for the two clubs to reach an agreement. Manchester United is willing to sell Greenwood, and the manager has accepted that he won’t be returning. It is believed that a clean break would be best for all parties involved. Despite Greenwood’s talent, a return to Manchester United at a time when the club is undergoing a new chapter with new owners is seen as a step backward.
