Casemiro has been one of Manchester United’s most important players since Michael Carrick took over as manager, and it has become clear that many fans want him to stay at the club.<\/h2>\n

Casemiro has admitted there is “no chance” of him remaining at Manchester United. Back in January, the Brazilian midfielder announced he would be leaving Old Trafford at the end of this season.<\/p>\n
Since then, he has become a key figure, providing important goals for Michael Carrick and proving to be the ideal midfield partner for the resurgent Coby Mainu. United supporters have been chanting “One more year, one more Casemiro” throughout the campaign, and it appeared to have struck a chord with the former Real Madrid star’s wife after the win against Liverpool.<\/p>\n
Manager Matheus Cunha also recently hinted to some supporters that Casemiro would remain at the club, saying he “doesn’t know” but hinted that he would like his colleague to stay. Despite this, the veteran midfielder has confirmed he will leave Old Trafford with dignity intact at the end of the season.<\/p>\n

In an interview with ESPN, Casemiro was asked if he had any chance of staying at the club, and he replied: “I don’t think there’s a chance. There’s no chance. Mainly because of what I said, you know? Get out the big door. I think it’s been a beautiful, wonderful four years and I’m forever grateful not only to the club but also to the fans.”<\/p>\n
“But I think I have to leave on good terms, I think I have to leave on top. I remain a forever United fan here in England and I have to thank the fans for all their love.”<\/p>\n

This will be a particularly big blow for Cunha, who recently said, “I play with him in the national team and I know how important he is. He’s a great guy. And yes, it’s a privilege to have this guy in the dressing room.”<\/p>\n
“We don’t know what his contract will be in the end. And of course we all expect a little more. Of course we know it’s more difficult than we talked about, but ultimately we don’t know.”<\/p>\n

Carrick also urged the United faithful to savor as much of Casemiro’s performances and commitment as they can between now and the end of the season. United’s interim manager said: “Case had an influence within the group.<\/p>\n
“He has a huge amount of experience, is a great player and has achieved so much in the game. I have to say that he has given his all since I came here.<\/p>\n

“Maybe the circumstances helped. He knew exactly what the situation was, he had nothing to hide and he threw himself squarely into it. That’s football, you know, this is football. Over the years there are players who come and leave this football club, players come and go and you have to evolve and you go with it.”<\/p>\n
“That’s the world we’re in, but he definitely gave it his all. I think it’s great that he has that connection with his supporters and it comes from both directions because I know he’s an emotional guy and it means a lot to him.”<\/p>\n
