Manchester United have reached agreement on major star to exit NOW: report
Manchester United are said to have agreed a late loan deal for one of their most high-profile stars.
Even though England’s transfer window closed on August 30, other European nations were still permitted to purchase and sell players based on their respective deadlines. Deals can still be made with Turkey, one of the nations, till September 13.
In recent days, two players from Erik ten Hag’s team have been linked to moves away from Old Trafford; Fenerbahce is rumored to have been keeping a close eye on Antony.
However, his Brazilian teammate is still drawing attention in other places. Over the past week, Casemiro has been linked to a loan move away from the team.
Since then, talk has increased around Casemiro’s future and the report states how he told club officials this week he does not want to move away from Manchester.
The Red Devils have brought in former PSG man Manuel Ugarte and it now looks like he could be the natural replacement for the Brazil international.
Last season, Sky pundit Jamie Carragher was scathing in his criticism of Casemiro. The former Liverpool man said after United’s 4-0 defeat to Crystal Palace that, “This has to stop,” claiming, “The football has left him.”
Jamie Carragher broadcasts ahead of the Premier League match between Manchester United and Liverpool at Old Trafford on August 22, 2022 in Manchester, England.
Transfermarkt values the hard-hitting midfielder at €20milllion (£16.8million) and it is thought the club considered a permanent exit for him this summer, only for his stock to rise during their pre-season endeavours in the United States.
FourFourTwo nods that if Manchester United were to loan him out now, it would make no sense should injuries again pile up like they did last season.
“I think that in football everyone has to take responsibility,” said Ten Hag recently regarding the former Sao Paulo man. “I’m sure he is a great character and he won everything in his career that you can imagine. I am sure he will keep contributing to our team and Casemiro is always winning so he will be there.”
