MANCHESTER UNITED have offered Casemiro the opportunity to DOUBLE his wages if he joins the club.
The Red Devils are desperately seeking new midfielders, and having struggled to land their main summer target Frenkie de Jong they now look set to try and land Real Madrid's Casemiro.
The Brazilian veteran has won a plethora of trophies with Los Blancos, including five Champions League titles.
But now the 30-year-old could leave behind his trophy-laden days in Madrid in favour of a far-more lucrative contract at Old Trafford.
According to journalist Fernando Burgos, Casemiro has been offered the chance to go from £4.2 to £8.4million a season over a five-year deal.
However, United are yet to submit an offer for the defensive midfielder.

United have already seen a £110m bid for the attacker rejected, with his release clause at the Wanda Metropolitano set at a whopping £295m.
