Manchester United have announced that Casemiro will leave the club when his contract expires at the end of the season, with the 33-year-old set to become a free agent
Manchester United have confirmed that Casemiro will leave the club when his contract expires at the end of the season.
The 33-year-old midfielder is set to become a free agent in the summer despite becoming a regular again at Old Trafford this season. Casemiro has enjoyed a revival under Ruben Amorim and also started Michael Carrick’s first game in charge against Manchester City.
But in a surprise announcement, United confirmed out of the blue that Casemiro will not sign a new contract to remain at Old Trafford.
“Casemiro will leave Manchester United this summer, upon the expiry of his contract,” the club announced.
“The legendary midfielder has enjoyed four seasons at the club, playing 146 games and scoring 21 goals to date. A serial winner, Casemiro was unveiled at Old Trafford in August 2022, and quickly became a fan favourite due to his combative nature and ability to score goals at crucial times.
“The Brazil captain played a major role in helping United to win the 2023 Carabao Cup, scoring a header in a colossal performance against Newcastle United. The 33-year-old also won the Emirates FA Cup in 2024.
“Supporters will have the opportunity to recognise Casemiro’s contributions at the final home game of the season, against Nottingham Forest.”
