After two seasons with Manchester United, Casemiro regrets joining the club

According to the Mirror, Manchester United midfielder Casemiro, now regrets joining our club. It’s no wonder why he wouldn’t say this. Casemiro may believe he made the incorrect choice in leaving Real for the Red Devils.

After nine trophy-filled years at Real Madrid, where he started five Champions League finals at the base of a midfield with Luka Modric and Toni Kroos, Casemiro signed a £70 million deal to join United last summer. Together, the three created a powerful alliance that ruled most of Europe.

In his first season, Erik ten Hag’s team has undergone a transformation thanks to the Brazilian’s presence. In addition to becoming a leader on the field, he has brought balance, control, and structure to the group. In addition to winning the EFL Cup, United advanced to the FA Cup final, finished in the top three in the league, and broke their six-year trophy drought.

However, Casemiro’s play has declined this season, raising concerns about his starting position. In order to increase competition for midfield spots, Sofyan Amrabat and Mason Mount both arrived this summer. Kobbie Mainoo will play after he returns from his injury layoff.

Maybe a backup option, Casemiro now appears to be unable to even break into the starting lineup over Scott McTominay.

Casemiro missed out on United’s thrilling triumph against Sheffield due to an ankle injury he suffered while playing for Brazil’s international team. He is suspended and therefore cannot participate in the midweek fixture against Copenhagen next week; however, will endeavour to get back into the first eleven at the earliest opportunity.

The last thing United need is for additional players to be added to the injury list as games are coming up quickly. A number of our stars have had extended periods of absence, which has affected our ability to get off to a rapid start this season.

Though Casemiro is undoubtedly talented enough to start games for Manchester United on a regular basis, it’s possible that Ten Hag might look at better options. Lets see.
