Inter Miami have reportedly made their first move to secure the signing of Manchester United veteran Casemiro, opening talks with the midfielder's representatives over a sensational summer switch to Major League Soccer. The Brazilian is said to be "open" to the project in Florida, which would see him link up with former rival Lionel Messi.

In recent days, reports in Brazil had confirmed Inter’s interest in signing him on a free transfer, and the player has confirmed his departure from the Red Devils

Casemiro has ruled out a Manchester United stay despite a late-season resurgence under interim boss Michael Carrick. The veteran Brazilian midfielder is set to call time on his Old Trafford career this summer following a club announcement earlier this year.

The Selecao have been given a wake-up call at the start of the World Cup year. The big talking point afterwards is a player who wasn’t even selected.

Brazil's main men fell flat as the Selecao turned in an underwhelming performance against France in a forgettable 2-1 loss. The Selecao were poor at both ends of the pitch, and languid in between, and only really showed attacking intent when it was too late. A late goal from Bremer was rather flattering as Carlo Ancelotti's men were easily dealt with by Les Bleus, who played most of the second half with ten men.

Manchester United and Casemiro reached a mutual agreement to waive a specific performance-based extension clause in his contract. The decision clears the path for the Brazilian midfielder to leave Old Trafford as a free agent this summer without financial complications for the club.
