In the third round of the Premier League, Man United faced Liverpool at home. Ten Hag and his team played poorly and accepted a humiliating 0-3 defeat. Casemiro was the player who caused the disaster, making two mistakes that allowed Luis Diaz to score a double for The Kop.
Immediately after the match, Casemiro received a lot of criticism from experts and fans. He is expected to soon lose his starting position to Manuel Ugarte, who has just transferred from PSG. Compared to the Brazilian star, Ugarte is young and is also highly appreciated for his defensive ability and midfield control.
As for Casemiro, European media reported that Galatasaray is closely following the former Real Madrid star. However, the Brazilian midfielder does not seem interested in leaving. The Daily Mail confirmed that Casemiro will stay and compete fairly for a starting position.
Witnessing Casemiro's decline, legend Alan Shearer believes that his time is up. He told Metro: "I don't like to see great players fail on the pitch. Look at what Casemiro has achieved, where he has played, but everyone comes to a point. At that point, you are not as good as you were in the past.
It's hard to see a great player make the mistake Casemiro did. He's been great all his career and has always played for big teams. But against Liverpool, he was mediocre."
While playing for Real Madrid, Casemiro won 5 Champions Leagues, 3 La Ligas and many other titles. That made Man United spend up to 70 million euros to recruit him in the summer of 2022. Currently, Casemiro is receiving 350 thousand pounds/week at the English team and that is the reason why this star leaving will not be easy.
