It would be a shame if Benzema had to leave Al Ittihad. The reason is, he hasn't played a single season, but he has decided he wants to leave Al Ittihad. But even so, if Benzema is no longer comfortable playing at Al Ittihad, it can't be helped, it would be better for Benzema to leave. Because even if forced, Benzema's performance will definitely not be optimal. And this will of course affect his career in the world of football which he has pioneered so far and will also have a negative impact on Al Ittihad. So choosing to leave Al Ittihad was indeed the right decision for Benzema.

Apart from that, perhaps the main reason Benzema feels uncomfortable playing at Al Ittihad may be because of the coach. Because as far as I know, Benzema reportedly doesn't get along with Al Ittihad's old coach, and now it's reported that Benzema also doesn't get along with Al Ittihad's new coach. I don't know the reason, but it seems like Benzema doesn't fit in at Al Ittihad. Even though at Al Ittihad he had teammates who both came from his country (Francis), namely Kante. Apart from that, he is also a Muslim who certainly feels at home living in Saudi Arabia, where the majority of the population is Muslim. So clearly it was the coach who made him uncomfortable at Al Ittihad. Because if you look at other factors, I think Benzema is fine at Al Ittihad.

However, currently Benzema still seems to have many fans. The reason is that Arsenal, Chelsea, MU and Lyon are all targeting Benzema. So Benzema is still very lucky because there are still many teams who are still interested in bringing him.

Karim Benzema's adventure in the Saudi Professional League did not go smoothly because he felt pressured by the club and demanded that he be a mainstay for a club like Ittihad, as well as Ittihad who thought that adding Karim Benzema could further strengthen Ittihad's performance. But it turned out that with Benzema's presence, Al Ittihad actually experienced a decline in performance and this was not entirely Benzema's fault, but it could be a lack of good adaptation between coach and players and Benzema also felt uncomfortable at the club.

It is true that every country definitely has differences and when players decide to move to Saudi Arabia they have to think carefully and learn first about the country they are going to and not be immediately tempted by a big salary so as not to make a decision that ends in regret as happened on Karim Benzema.

Things are not rosy for Benzema with his adventure in Saudi Professional League and Al Ittihad. They won the league title last season and bought Benzema to defend the title but now they are in middle of table, that is a very disappointed result for them. With an ambitious player like Benzema who won 5 Champions League and even one Ballon d'Or three seasons ago, it looks unacceptable.

This disappointment combines with other reasons like unable to adapt to a new nation with many differences than European nations, are enough to cause reconsideration of many European players. Rumor is not only Benzema, but also some players are seriously thinking of leaving Saudi Professional League.

Ronaldo is more than just a player for Al Nassr and it seems other than attracting players like Casemiro for their team they even make delay on the friendly games because of Ronaldo. Al Nassr was about to have a friendly match with Iner Miami in this match we could see Ronaldo and Messi in the game but since Ronaldo was injured, Al Nassr delayed the friendly game to have Ronaldo.



Benzema playing in the Saudi League and for Al Ittihad was not a good experience for this French player and Al Ittihad and it seems Benzema wants to leave Al Ittihad soon. However, during the time when Benzema joined Al Ittihad, he was mostly injured and not in the good form but he is now about to leave because he said he is under pressure in this country and he can't handle this pressure that's why he asked the Al Ittihad to let him leave.
 

They played together at Real Madrid from 2015 to 2018. Then they played together for a short time at Manchester United. According to media reports, Cristinao Ronaldo would like to see Casemiro at Al-Nassr. Considering Ronaldo's influence on Al-Nassr and his friendship with Casemiro, it is not hard to imagine that Al-Nassr football club would be open to this transfer. Also, according to media reports, Manchester United are very likely to be in favor of such a transfer. In conclusion, if Casemiro wants it, this transfer will happen.

Just because he can take the blame when they lose and try to keep the morale happy, doesn't mean that he is a good tactician, dude has been manager before and I can tell you that all his talent comes from making his player happy and play at 100%, so when you give him a good squad he does well, because he makes the good squad play with their 5100, but he is not the type of guy who could make the team better with his tactics.

He is basically 100% exact opposite of Bielsa, bilsa wouldn't care about his players, and he would micro manage every single game and would make changes to his system, he would really make the defenders work so hard that he was famous for having record breaking number of injured players as well.

Of course, many clubs want the services of a player like Casemiro. I also read several news which stated that Juventus and AC Milan really wanted his services, but if you look at current developments, Al Nassr is getting closer to being able to get Casemiro because of course this is also because of Ronaldo at Al Nassr. If successful, it will be good for the Al Nassr squad in competing for the SPL title.

I want to correct those of you who say that his contribution at Man United is not very visible, which I think is wrong, he is a player who has a lot of passion and hard work in helping the defense and also in helping the attack, it's just that Erik Tan Hag can't take advantage of a player like Casemiro .

Casemiro's decision to join Man United from the start was the wrong decision because every player who joined Man United would definitely become a scapegoat for Man United's defeat after defeat. It's clear everyone, players who have a work ethic, a passion for development are the scapegoats, first Cristiano Ronaldo, then De Gea, now Casemiro. This coach has no quality and instead has a hobby of looking for problems with his own players.

Starting from the problems at Manchester United, it is certainly enough to make Casemiro not very comfortable and we often see that the Red Devils coach is not quite right in making decisions. The team didn't seem to have a winning mentality and Casemiro, who came from Real Madrid, brought it all. So here, when it comes to a player's thinking, it is clear that Casemiro has misplaced himself.

Casemiro must realize that at Real Madrid he only has a winning mentality and if he applies it to Manchester United the results will not be commensurate. Now he is getting older and he has to think about it all the time and if an official offer comes to him from Al-Nassr, I don't think he needs to consider it any longer because like Cristiano Ronaldo, both of them have won all the big competitions in Europe.

We know that Man United will most likely end the season without any titles, perhaps only with a chance of winning the FA Cup. The reason they want to release Casemiro is closely related to the club income, they have to balance expenses, one way is to release high-paid players like Casemiro. United have been eliminated from the UCL, and in the EPL their chances of finishing in the top four of the standings are very low, a background that requires United management to take a stand. If United have hopes of appearing again in the UCL next season, they will almost certainly not let Casemiro go, because their finances will definitely be stable.

Regarding rumors of Casemiro move to Al Nassr, I don't think there will be any obstacles if the player is willing to move, because Al Nassr will probably build a squad that matches Ronaldo hopes. However, several other European clubs are also interested in signing him, but I personally believe that Casemiro will choose Al Nassr, not only because of Ronaldo, the main reason remains the salary he will receive, which is no less than what he got at United.

Yes indeed, considering also about Casemiro age of 31 years so yes, at least this factor also makes elite European teams have other considerations to recruit him. But yes, it is different from Al Nassr and or elite clubs in the Saudi Pro League who are accustomed to recruiting old top European players at high prices. Moreover, it seems that Casemiro also always goes where Ronaldo plays and therefore, it seems that joining Al Nassr and returning to play with Ronaldo is very likely to happen for Casemiro in this transfer window. Because after all, staying at Manchester United also does not seem to be entirely good for Casemiro because it may be an unsuitable style of play applied by Erik ten Hag there.

Based on the agenda of the Saudi Pro League striving to create visibility and awareness in the European space with the major goal of ensuring an expanded sports market, the clubs find themselves in a situation where there's less utilization of local players. These players have no doubt some certain level of effects to a club but the aims of these clubs won't allow for the players to be used. It'll only make sense that a policy be put in place for the use of local players in every team but I don't think that'll be enough to take them to where they visioned the league to get to.

 SPL wants to be broadcasted and be seen worldwide and this makes for the rapid purchase and push for European stars who'd cause focus to gradually be shifted to their league. If the local players are entertained, then there'd definitely be no room for this hot caked stars in Europe and in the long run, it won't give them the focus they want to get. All things in the SPL currently occurs as a planned activity, and they are all working towards a set goal. It's only a gradual process before the impacts are seen.

Bringing Casemiro from Manchester is not a difficult thing for Al Nassr because they have strong finances, apart from that, Al Nassr can actually get Casemiro for free because reportedly Manchester United is ready to pay compensation of 20 million euros to Casemiro for contract termination, injury and Casemiro declining performance is Manchester  reason to throw Casemiro away and of course it will be a beautiful reunion for Ronaldo if Casemiro joins Al Nassr,  So far we have known Casemiro as a quite tough midfielder when he was with Madrid and I think this is the reason why Ronaldo hopes that Casemiro can join Al Nassr because if that happens then Al Nassr defense line will be stronger and of course the collaboration between Ronaldo and Casemiro will make a big contribution to Al Nassr.

Well lets say the last time they were togheter in the Manchester United it wasnt the better ones, but they keep in them that wonderfulls moments in Real MAdrid when Casemiro and Cristiano were two ultra key players of the team.

I can see Casemiro in Al Nasrr i think he have that discipline to remain in Saudi soil.

It was Sir Jim Ratcliffe who had a plan want to sell Casemiro because in Manchester United Casemiro as one of the highest paid players in this team at 300k per week so he feel Manchester United have to sell Casemiro to cut the salary budget in Manchester United besides that Casemiro recently was often to gets injured which make his performance was decline so that's why Casemiro will being an one of the players who will be sell this summer even Sir Jim Ratcliffe is willing to pay all the salaries of Casemiro according to the contract duration as long as Casemiro willing to leave Manchester United

Casemiro wasn't included of Sir Jim Ratcliffe long term plan because Casemiro is not young anymore so he will more likely to look for younger players as the replacement of Casemiro for his long term plan project for Manchester United and if this rumour is true i think big possibility Casemiro will accept the offers from Sir Jim Ratcliffe because it's not difficult for him to gets new clubs if leave Manchester United because besides some of Arabian clubs reported AC Milan and Juventus also showing their interest to Casemiro so let's see if Casemiro will choose a European club or if he decides to try something new in the Saudi Pro League

Al Ittihad still really needs Benzema but if he has to leave and return to playing in Europe then it is true that Al Ittihad must look for much better replacement or just have the same quality of play, there are quite lot of potential players that European teams have and this will make it easier for Al Ittihad to find replacement for Benzema.

Al Ittihad this season does not have any hope of climbing to the top of the standings in the runner-up position or the top 3 and even though Benzema leaves and there is replacement, Al Ittihad hope is to be able to show change next season.
Al Ittihad has many players, unfortunately none of them can be relied on and are able to bring Al Ittihad to more wins.

There are too many rumors circulating and various teams have been linked to Benzema being able to visit, but so far there is no certainty about who Benzema will play for after actually leaving Al Ittihad.
Returning to Spain seems impossible.

If the problem is resolved, perhaps Benzema will be able to play with Al Ittihad much longer, but the real problem is that Benzema feels uncomfortable when playing with Al Ittihad.

Yes, even without Neymar Al Hilal can still cope well, their performance so far is unbeatable and the consistency that Al Hilal has is also extraordinary. Before there was Neymar Al Hilal was also a big club in the Saudi Pro League so it's not surprising that Al Hilal is still performing impressively so far. The attackers they have are also very productive in creating opportunities and also Al Hilal defense is strong enough to prevent Al Hilal from conceding many goals and also prevent Al Hilal from losing.

If Neymar is at the club I am sure Al Hilal performance will be stronger because Neymar is also a great player and Al Hilal can also rotate players and not only rely on Mitrovic because Al Hilal has several quality players including Neymar. But if in the end Neymar is removed from the squad I think Al Hilal is still looks for a replacement for Neymar in this transfer window because Al Hilal still needs European players to deepen their squad.

After Sir Jim Ratcliffe and INEOS owned 25% of Man United shares, many rumors about reforming the club. One of them is selling Casemiro, this is because Casemiro's salary is quite high. While his contribution is not very visible for this season. Although of course the results are not good this is also because of Erik Ten Hag. Casemiro's contract at Man United until 2026. This makes Casemiro unable to leave for free. In addition, it seems that not only Arab clubs, Juventus and Milan have an interest in Casemiro. But most of these clubs do not want to pay to get Casemiro.

Casemiro decided to leave Real Madrid when he could continue to play for them together with Modric and Kroos. Deciding to leave Real Madrid after winning 5 Champions League with them is not easy but he did it. He actually contributed to improve Manchester United but that club has many problems and only one defensive midfielder can not fix all of their problems.

Manchester United and Ten Hag changed to treat Casemiro unfairly and I believe the player is no longer happy in Old Trafford. It is probably good time for Casemiro to leave Europe and enjoy good salary from clubs in Saudi Arabia. I don't know how long will those clubs continue to pay high salary for star players from Europe. Casemiro will not have many seasons to join that league so he must make his decision soon enough.

The rumor looks logical with Cristiano Ronaldo's engagement in convincing Casemiro to join Al Nassr. It's rumor now and even it looks logical, we have to wait what will happen in next 8 days before the winter transfer market in Europe will close.

There are new rumors saying that Cristiano Ronaldo asked Al-Nassr to bring in Casemiro this year. It looks like Cristiano Ronaldo really needs a defensive midfielder like Casemiro in his dream line-up and it seems like Al-Nassr can't refuse the wishes of one of their star players. This will be the third reunion for Cristiano Ronaldo and Casemiro if the transfer is successful. However, currently Casemiro, who is still defending Manchester United, is still under contract until 2026 and perhaps making up for the costs is not cheap with the remainder of the contract.

But that is not a problem for the Saudi league team, especially since the investment they are making to continue adding European players to their league will still continue and it is possible that if Casemiro is interested in trying the Saudi league then he can come to Al-Nassr. Well, although it is not certain that this transfer news could happen at the end of the season and it does not rule out the possibility that Casemiro will want to stay longer at Manchester United.

Jorge Fernando Pinheiro de Jesus is one of the best thing to ever happen to Al Hilal because he's the main man behind the thrilling victory of matches. They stay consistent with or without the new players which is something for them to become proud of. We know how difficult it is for players to be able to adapt to the team's pattern of game but Al Hilal is totally a different case. Al Hilal have remained unbeaten this season and they're looking forward to stay unbeaten without the present of the keyman. Afterall Al Hilal have been serving without the presence of Neymar Jr and other European players they signed.
