Man Utd are set to reopen talks with Casemiro about extending his stay at Old Trafford. The Brazilian midfielder, who has excelled alongside Kobbie Mainoo under interim boss Michael Carrick, scores the opener in a 3-1 victory over Aston Villa, solidifying United's third place in the Premier League. Fans chant “one more year” for Casemiro, who initially planned to leave when his contract expires this summer. Fabrizio Romano confirms the club hasn’t approached him about staying, but recent performances have prompted a change in strategy. While United have the option to extend his deal, Casemiro's hefty £350,000-a-week wages present a challenge. With Champions League football in sight, the Red Devils view Casemiro as a vital asset for their ambitions. The upcoming months will be crucial as both sides navigate this potential U-turn.
