Casemiro could be set to stay at Manchester United for the remainder of his career, it has been claimed.
The Brazilian has starred for Ruben Amorim’s side in recent months, playing a key role in the Old Trafford club reaching the Europa League final.
Casemiro’s u-turn in form comes after a dismal run of performances that saw the 33-year-old linked with a move to the Saudi Pro League and MLS.

The Sun has alleged that Amorim has been working closely with Casemiro at Carrington, and that the United boss now believes the midfielder has a key role to play in the club’s rebuild.
Amorim is said to value Casemiro’s experience and versatility with the player remaining at Old Trafford now a ‘serious option’.
The publication added that Casemiro, who is thought to be on some £375,000-a-week, is happy in England at 'open minded' about seeing out his career with the Manchester club.
Speaking to the club’s matchday program ahead of United’s Europa league encounter against Athletic Club, the five-time Champions League winner said: “I have won what I have won.
“But I always want more. I always want to earn it, to win, that is the winning mentality.
"People only see the 90 minutes, I always say ‘the matches are the reflection of what you do every day’ and that is me - always working.
“Whether I play or don’t play, I am there every day. That is me as a person, that is me. Whether I play or not - all I want is for United to win.
"If United win, I am winning. The most important is that United win. It is not about me winning or another player winning, it is about United winning.
“I want to help in any way I can, I will be there. This is my mentality. That is why I have won what I have won in my career.”
