Casemiro, a 32-year-old Brazilian midfielder, has been going through a difficult time at Manchester United since arriving in 2022 from Real Madrid for a reported 70 million euros. Although he was recruited to become a pillar of the English club, he failed to establish himself as an indisputable starter. This season, he is mainly used as a substitute, having only started 6 times in 11 matches managed by Rúben Amorim. The Red Devils coach seems to rely less and less on him, which has led, according to CalcioMercato upon its inclusion in a list of transfers.
Casemiro’s departure prospects are mentioned, particularly for the January market, but his substantial emoluments as well as his current contract until 2026 will complicate future negotiations. Besides him, several other Manchester United players, such as Marcus Rashford, Christian Eriksen, Antony and Victor Lindelof, could also leave the club in the coming weeks. A turbulent period ahead at Old Trafford.
