Casemiro's outstanding season in Portugal has re-opened the doors to Real Madrid.

Los Blancos told Porto yesterday that they wanted to re-sign the Brazilian for the €7.5m agreed in the loan deal

The Portuguese club's board had told its counterparts at the Santiago Bernabéu several days ago that it intended to make his loan deal permanent for €15m.

The loan deal included a clause allowing the La Liga side to block Porto's move so long as they told the Portuguese side of their intentions to buy Casemiro back for €7.5m before 5th June. That is what they did.

The Brazilian is heading back to Madrid to stay. Should Los Blancos change their mind and decide to sell Casemiro or include him as part of a transfer deal, Porto will be compensated to the sum of €15m (€7.5m more than the original buy-back fee).
