Manchester United will be without Casemiro, who has been struggling with form and injury, as they enter the final part of the season. The Brazilian midfielder has not been able to replicate his performances from last season, leading to frustration among fans. Throughout the Premier League season, Casemiro has looked slow and out of depth, creating space between the midfield and defense, which has impacted the team’s overall performance. The Red Devils are second in the league in receiving shots from opposition teams, highlighting the issues in the midfield.

At 32, Casemiro’s best days are behind him, especially in a physical league like the Premier League. The emergence of 18-year-old academy graduate Kobbie Mainoo further emphasizes Casemiro’s decline in pace. With three years left on his contract and high wages, Manchester United’s new owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe will need to carefully consider the midfielder’s future at the club. The club is undergoing changes in its sporting structure, with new personnel being brought in to assess each player and their contract situation.

As Manchester United look to make changes to improve their squad, Casemiro’s age and potential transfer value are factors that will be considered. With interest from Saudi Arabia and the possibility of a significant transfer fee, selling Casemiro could be a prudent move for the club. The midfielder still holds global appeal and could be a valuable asset in the transfer market, especially for a Saudi club looking to bolster their squad. Removing Casemiro’s wages from the wage bill would also be a financial benefit for Manchester United.

With Manchester United aiming to catch up to their rivals, every decision regarding player recruitment and squad building is crucial. With a likely focus on younger players and a shift in the midfield, including talents like Mason Mount, Bruno Fernandes, Scott McTominay, and Mainoo, selling Casemiro could be seen as a strategic move. The Red Devils are looking to make smart and calculated decisions to strengthen their squad and compete at the highest level in the coming seasons.
