Chelsea can repeat Frenkie de Jong transfer trick to land £60m Casemiro amid Real Madrid promise

Chelsea and Man United are set to be embroiled in their latest transfer battle together.

Initially, the Blues and Barcelona had a rivalry this summer over certain transfer signings. Ousmane Dembélé, Jules Kounde and Raphinha were of interest to both. Barca had all three transfer battles. Fast forward a little bit of time and Chelsea and Man United seem to be two clubs in for the same players in some regards.

Frenkie de Jong was the main target of interest to both but the Dutchman is looking more likely by the day to get his wish granted to stay put in Spain. As an alternative to Barcelona's number 21, both clubs are set to do battle for Real Madrid's Casemiro. Many of the English outlets are linking the Red Devils to a £60m swoop for the Brazilian veteran.
