There has been an update on the immediate future of Casemiro, following reports the Brazilian midfielder could be leaving Old Trafford for a move to the Turkish Super Lig.
Casemiro has been on the end of some pretty extreme criticism in the last 12 months or so, with Jamie Carragher famously telling the midfielder to 'leave the football before the football leaves you', on Sky Sports last season.
The Manchester United man came under fire again over the weekend as he was hooked at half time by Erik ten Hag after he was at fault for both goals United conceded before the break.
With a lot of speculation around his future following links to Galatasaray, transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has provided an update.

"Casemiro, currently expected to stay at Man United at least until 2025 despite links with Galatasaray move," he posted via X.
"Brazilian midfielder not planning to leave the club now, no concrete talks taking place with Gala."
Despite the rather humiliating substitution, Ten Hag has remained extremely positive over Casemiro's role in the side this season.
"I met him after the game in the dressing room," he said.
"Why I subbed him was because we are 2-0 down and against an opponent like Liverpool with their qualities, we have to take risk because we want to come back."
The former Real Madrid will undoubtedly go down as one of the greats after winning five Champions League trophies throughout his career, and this kind of record is exactly why Ten Hag is keeping faith in the 32-year-old.
"Casemiro has shown so often that he is a great character," Ten Hag told Viaplay.
"We all have seen great moments from him. He will show that again and will bounce back. He won everything in his career you can imagine. He will keep contributing to our team. He is always winning," the Dutchman added.
