Casemiro ‘agrees to leave Manchester United’ as huge January transfer claim made

The future of Casemiro at Manchester United is questionable. Under new United head coach Ruben Amorim, the 32-year-old has battled for consistent playing time after being linked to a move away from Old Trafford in the summer.

The Brazilian had only played 27 minutes in the previous five Premier League games before making his first start in SIX on Monday in a 2-0 loss to Newcastle.

Ex-United star Kleberson claimed back in November that Casemiro was ‘getting better’ and felt he had a future under Ruben Amorim at Old Trafford. “Casemiro is the one player who doesn’t shy away from the pressure; he can handle the pressure,” he told the Metro.

“People can get upset with him or the media, and the news can try and punch him down, but he’s always the same guy and will always try to play the way that he can play. You saw him score two goals [against Leicester City], the second goal that he scored he was the one that won the header and he still had the desire to get the next ball.

“I think things are getting better for him. Every time a season is done, you hear that Casemiro has to leave United, that he has done, has to go to Saudi Arabia or back to Brazil, but he can still play. He can still offer more to United.”
