Casemiro ends speculation: no chance of Man United U-turn as he vows to leave “on top” | OneFootball

Casemiro's contract with the club expires in the summer and it was announced in February that the midfielder will leave Old Trafford at the end of the campaign.

The club's fans have urged a re-think on that decision, following the Brazilian's role inChampions League qualification. The 34-year-old has scored nine goals in 33 appearances in the Premier League this season, and has shone alongside Kobbie Mainoo in recent weeks.

Casemiro's key role in the club's improvement under interim manager Michael Carrick has led to calls for a new deal, with teammate Matheus Cunha suggesting there could be a change of plan.

"I play with him in the national team and I know how important he is. He's an amazing guy. And yeah, to have this guy in the dressing room is a privilege," Cunha said.

"We don't know in the end how it is with his contract, and then of course we, everyone, hopes there's a little bit more. Of course, of course, I know it's harder than we talked about, but yeah, in the end, you never know."

However, the veteran has shut down that suggestion. Speaking toESPN, he said there's 'no chance' of a contract extension at Old Trafford and said he wants to leave while still 'on top'.

“I don't think there's a chance, there's no chance. Mostly because of what I said, you know? Go out the big door, I think it was four beautiful, wonderful years and I am eternally grateful not only to the club, but to the fans.

"But I think I have to leave in good terms, I have to go out on top. I will be an eternal United fan here in England and I just have to thank all the love from the fans.”
