Inter Miami Launch Talks to Sign Casemiro on Free Transfer

Inter Miami have initiated contact with Casemiro’s representatives and submitted an initial proposal for a free transfer this summer, according to renowned journalist Fabrizio Romano. The 34-year-old Brazilian defensive midfielder, whose Manchester United contract expires in June 2026, is reportedly open to joining Lionel Messi’s side in MLS.

Casemiro, a five-time Champions League winner with Real Madrid, is attracted to Inter Miami’s ambitious project and the opportunity to play alongside Messi. Sources indicate he also values the personal lifestyle in Miami. However, the deal hinges on financial terms, as the veteran has received competing offers from clubs in Europe and Saudi Arabia.Manchester United confirmed earlier this year that Casemiro will leave Old Trafford at the end of the 2025-26 season, with no plans for an extension despite his solid recent performances. The move would mark another high-profile addition to Inter Miami’s star-studded squad, following the “Messi effect” that has drawn veterans like Sergio Busquets in the past.

Fans have reacted with a mix of emotions: Manchester United supporters expressed disappointment, while many highlighted the excitement of seeing Casemiro partner Messi in midfield. If completed, the signing could significantly bolster Inter Miami’s defensive stability as they aim for further MLS success.
