Casemiro Stars in Derby Win as Manchester United Future Remains Unclear

The 33-year-old says he is focused on United despite an expiring contract as outside interest is reported.

Overview

  • Michael Carrick restored Casemiro to the XI for the 2-0 victory over Manchester City, where he delivered a man-of-the-match performance.
  • Speaking to ESPN Brasil, he said he is proud to represent United and is savoring the present moment.
  • He acknowledged frustration over recent coaching changes, noted Ruben Amorim’s exit, and urged teammates to support the new coach.
  • His contract runs out this summer, with reports of MLS and Saudi Pro League interest and prior talk of a reduced-term offer now in doubt after Amorim’s departure.
  • The Manchester Evening News reports a one-year extension option would activate only if he reaches 35 starts and United qualify for the Champions League, a combination viewed as unlikely given his current wages.
