Casemiro appears increasingly likely to conclude his playing career at Manchester United, a significant change in outlook attributed to manager Ruben Amorim.
The Brazilian midfielder, a former Real Madrid standout, seemed set to depart Old Trafford this summer following a noticeable decline in his performance.
However, he has shown renewed form in recent weeks and has been a key player for the Red Devils, particularly in their European campaign.
Sources within United indicate that Amorim has been working closely with Casemiro at the training ground and now sees him as having a crucial role to play in the team`s future development.
Amorim reportedly values the player`s extensive experience and versatility as vital assets for bringing success back to the club.
Consequently, staying at Manchester United is now a strong possibility for Casemiro, despite previous links to clubs in the United States and the Saudi League.
While potentially lucrative offers exist elsewhere, sources close to the player suggest he is content in England and open to finishing his career at the highest level of football.
He currently earns a substantial weekly wage, reportedly £375,000.
Casemiro himself recently spoke about his continued passion for elite football in an interview before United`s important Europa League tie against Athletic Club.
The five-time Champions League winner told the official matchday programme: “I have won what I have won.
“But I always want more. I always want to earn it, to win; that is the winning mentality.
“People only see the 90 minutes; I always say ‘the matches are the reflection of what you do every day,’ and that is me – always working.
“Whether I play or don`t play, I am there every day. That is me as a person, that is me. Whether I play or not, all I want is for United to win.
“If United win, I am winning. The most important is that United win. It is not about me winning or another player winning; it is about United winning.
“I want to help in any way I can; I will be there. This is my mentality. That is why I have won what I have won in my career.”
The Brazilian midfielder joined United in the summer of 2022 for a fee of £70 million.
He scored United`s second goal in their 4-1 home win against Athletic Bilbao in the Europa League semi-final second leg on Thursday.
This followed his opening goal in the first leg, which set Amorim`s side on their way to a 3-0 victory at San Mamés.
