Inter Miami are increasingly optimistic about completing a deal for Casemiro before the 2026 FIFA World Cup as revealed by transfer journalist Fabrizio Romano via his official X account.
According to the latest update, all parties involved are aligned as discussions move closer toward final approval.
Earlier reports from Softfootball indicated that Casemiro’s move away from Manchester United was already progressing strongly, with Inter Miami having initiated talks and submitted an initial proposal to the experienced midfielder.
Romano shared:
Inter Miami are optimistic to close and seal Casemiro deal before the World Cup. All parties optimistic to get the final green light.

The potential transfer would see Casemiro reunited with Lionel Messi in Major League Soccer after the pair spent years competing against each other at the highest level in European football.
Supporters have reacted positively to the reports, with many believing Casemiro’s arrival would significantly strengthen Inter Miami’s midfield structure and leadership ahead of the new season.
Fans have also discussed the possibility of the Brazilian forming a powerful midfield partnership alongside players such as Rodrigo De Paul, potentially adding both defensive solidity and creativity to the team.

Casemiro’s experience at clubs like Real Madrid and Manchester United, combined with his success with the Brazil national football team, is viewed as a major asset for Inter Miami’s ambitions domestically and internationally.
The move would also continue MLS’ trend of attracting high-profile football stars ahead of the expanded 2026 World Cup set to take place across the United States, Canada, and Mexico.
