Casemiro: Manchester United Contract Extension
Jones told TEAMtalk on November 22 that a new deal for Casemiro is not a current priority, but it will be discussed. Fabrizio Romano reported that either a solution is found regarding the contract, or the player could leave as a free agent.
Fabrizio Romano confirmed that United want both Maguire and Casemiro to sign extensions. The pair are in the final year of their respective deals and Man Utd does not want to trigger their one-year options. Doing so would keep the players on their current salaries, which are considered high. Maguire's current salary is £190,000-a-week, while Casemiro is the highest earner at Old Trafford on £350,000-a-week. United will offer new deals on reduced wages to both Casemiro and Maguire.
According to Fabrizio Romano, Manchester United now want Casemiro to sign a new contract, but the only way for him to stay would be with a different salary. Manchester United do not want to pay the current salary in the future and want to change the salary structure. A new deal at United is conditional on Casemiro accepting a substantial pay-cut. He currently earns approximately £350,000-a-week at United and is the club’s highest earner.
Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim wants Casemiro to remain at Old Trafford beyond the current season and is urging the club’s hierarchy to secure a contract extension for the midfielder. According to Fabrizio Romano, Casemiro is viewed as a crucial figure in Amorim's system, and financial obstacles may complicate negotiations. Casemiro’s current deal expires next summer and Man United possess an option to extend it by 12 months, but the club is reportedly reluctant to trigger that clause due to the significant wages involved. The player is believed to be making in excess of £300,000 per week. Romano stated that there will be a conversation about Casemiro's contract because the numbers, particularly his salary, are currently too high for Manchester United to extend the deal.
Dean Jones reported on October 21 that Man Utd want Casemiro to reduce his salary to continue to play for the club beyond the end of the season. Jones also reported that Casemiro is Man Utd’s highest earner, and the club are not willing to keep him on the same terms. Fabrizio Romano added that manager Rúben Amorim would love to continue to work with Casemiro and that his situation will depend on the salary. Romano also stated that there will be a conversation about his contract because its numbers and salary are too high for Manchester United to extend.

Rúben Amorim said his objective is to continue having Casemiro. The player's contract expires at the end of the season, and the club has an option to extend it by an additional 12 months. It has been questioned whether United will activate the extension clause or instead seek a younger player in the summer. Internal discussions regarding the club’s wage structure and financial sustainability could be a decisive factor in determining Casemiro’s future.
According to ESPN, Manchester United do not rule out a contract extension for Casemiro if the midfielder would agree to a salary reduction.
