The 32-year-old Brazilian star arrived from Real Madrid shortly after the Dutchman’s appointment in 2022 and enjoyed an impressive start to life at Old Trafford.

But Casemiro failed to scale such heights last season and produced an alarming display against Liverpool a fortnight ago, gifting them two goals before .

Talk of a potential departure during the international break failed to materialise and Ten Hag said he was counting on the midfielder as United returned to action at Southampton.

But that was before he picked his XI and in…
