According to well-known reporter Romano, Manchester United will negotiate with Casemiro on a contract extension, but his current salary is too high for Manchester United.

Romano said: "Currently Casemiro is a key player for Manchester United. This is thanks to Casemiro himself.

"You know, when you are Casemiro, after winning everything with Real Madrid like he did, facing the difficulties the club has been in in recent years and a lot of criticism from all sides, it is not easy to reverse the opinions of the management, the coaching staff and even the fans.

"But Casemiro did it. Through his outstanding performance and hard work, he once again became a key player under the coach. Therefore, he is very important to Amorim at present.

"However, the two sides will negotiate on his contract, because the current salary amount of his contract is too high and it is difficult for Manchester United to renew the contract on this condition. So either they find a solution to their contract issues, which both Casemiro and Maguire face, or the player could leave on a free transfer.

"Casemiro has been receiving numerous offers, especially from the Middle East, especially Saudi clubs. He is still a target for many clubs there, but his current stay depends on salary.

"Casemiro is now fully focused on the field, and he hopes to help Manchester United at this moment, but his stay will depend on the resolution of the salary issue. Amorim very much hopes to continue working with Casemiro, but this also depends on the outcome of salary negotiations. "
