It is a great performance that is too disappointing to leave like this. However, veteran midfielder Casemiro (34) is determined to leave Manchester United in the end.

British media 'BBC' reported on the 17th (Korea Standard Time) that "Manchester United has no plans to reverse its decision to release Casemiro after this season."

Earlier, Casemiro had already announced in January that he would leave the team at the end of his contract at the end of this season.

Even after the breakup notice, he is showing off his top skills. Casemiro's recent performance is remarkable. Casemiro scored the first goal to lead his team to a 3-1 victory over Aston Villa on the 15th. It was his seventh goal of the season and his sixth header. Shortly after scoring, Casemiro showed his affection in front of the Stretford End stands by repeatedly pointing to the Manchester United emblem on his uniform.

Manchester United fans have also come to catch Casemiro. According to the BBC, local fans appealed for a stay throughout the game, saying, "One more year, Casemiro," and the cries did not stop until they headed to the tunnel after the game.

Fellow players also emphasized Casemiro's influence. "Everyone wanted Casemiro to stay," Rennie Yoro told ESPN. Casemiro is a really important player for us, he said. "He has experience that no one in the locker room has. He is a player who has won every competition. This is very helpful for us both on and off the field," he said. Captain Bruno Fernandes also expressed his hope that Casemiro would remain in the team.

But Manchester United's leadership has a different idea. Taking local reports together, co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe has expressed disapproval of Casemiro's high salary. It has even signaled a cost reduction for the entire club. Manchester United have decided to part ways with Casemiro early on to continue their long-term squad shake-up. 'BBC' analyzed that Manchester United will not implement the one-year extension option included in the contract.

Interim coach Michael Carrick also indicated that the decision was unlikely to be overturned. Carrick said, "Casemiro's influence on the team and scoring at a crucial moment were really great. The last moment he shared with his fans must have been fun for him," he said.

The view of dedicated analysts is also cold. Chris Sutton, who played for Norwich City and Chelsea in the past, said on "BBC," "It's hard to understand the debate about Casemiro," adding, "It's true that his performance has improved recently, but he's past his prime." If Manchester United really wants to move on to the next level, Casemiro is not the future."

Sutton also said, "I will not give 350,000 pounds (about 700 million won) a week simply to be the leader of the locker room," adding, "The situation is not simple because a player who has built a career like Casemiro will not want to sit on the bench."
