"There have already been denials about Casemiro, not from the club but from colleagues very close to the club. No, it's out of the question... However, I continue to say that Casemiro wants to play with Modric in the final years of his European career. He wants to play in the Champions League, and so I still believe that if Casemiro were to contact Modric and Modric were to contact Allegri or Tare, the possibility exists."
"Clearly, his salary is very high. It should fall to the level of our top players, there's no doubt about that. But, having already earned €36m in the last three years, I truly believe he could also be offered lower salaries, closer to the levels that Milan rightly maintain. I remain hopeful."
"I'm not interested in superficial denials, because if Allegri and Tare push ahead with Modric, this deal can be done, as happened with Rabiot."
Casemiro's Manchester United contract expires at season's end with no extension negotiations reported. AC Milan has shown interest in the 34-year-old Brazilian midfielder, encouraged by successful summer signings of veteran players Adrien Rabiot and Luka Modric. While some sources have denied Milan's interest, Carlo Pellegatti argues the transfer remains feasible. Casemiro reportedly wants to play alongside Modric in his final European years and compete in the Champions League. The primary obstacle is Casemiro's high salary, which would need to decrease to Milan's standards. Pellegatti suggests that given Casemiro's substantial earnings over recent years, he could accept reduced wages, making the deal achievable if Milan's leadership actively pursues it.
