Gary Neville singles out Casemiro after Man Utd enforce “strange” new 'Ronaldo rule'

Gary Neville has taken aim at Manchester United's decision to introduce a ‘Ronaldo rule’ at Old Trafford, with Casemiro seemingly among those already set to break it.

The Red Devils are reportedly intent on introducing a whole-squad rule that will see salaries limited at £200,000 per week in an effort to avoid a culture of jealousy in the dressing room. The decision comes after the disastrous deal to bring Cristiano Ronaldo back to Old Trafford, which saw the Portuguese rake in a huge weekly sum before his contract was terminated and he departed for Saudi Arabian outfit Al-Nassr.

The wage cap is a huge change from the stance adopted by former supremo Ed Woodward. Chief executive Richard Arnold and football director John Murtough are spearheading the alteration alongside manager Erik ten Hag.
