Casemiro
33-Year-Old
Manchester United
Premier
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Casemiro started 18 of his 24 Premier League appearances in 2024/25, and while he made his presence felt as a defensive threat (3.45 tackles, 2.0 clearances per game), he didn't do much at the other end. It's hard to see Casemiro as a player who's going to start regularly in midfield, especially since Ruben Amorim's midfield plan might have space for just one defensive midfielder alongside Bruno Fernandes. Another year older at 33, there's a chance he eventually gets phased out from a consistent role in the XI. Then again, he closed last season as a regular, so if he opens 2025/26 in that role, there's still some fantasy value to be had.
Available for selection
Casemiro is available for Saturday's clash with Sunderland after serving a one-match ban.
ANALYSIS
Casemiro was sent off for a pair of yellow cards against Chelsea and suspended for match with Brentford. The midfielder served that ban and is now eligible for a return. He's been a big part of the first team early in the season, starting four of the five matches he's been eligible for and even scoring a rare goal. He should be back against Sunderland, though he could be rotated a bit more against weaker opposition if manager Ruben Amorim opts for more creativity in midfield.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Set for summer move?
Casemiro is expected to leave Manchester United in the summer, according to Football Insider.
ANALYSIS
Manchester United are planning to let Casemiro leave when his contract expires in the summer. However, don't rule out a potential departure in January, although that looks increasingly unlikely given how well the Brazilian has performed for the Red Devils in 2025/26. Casemiro has established himself as the team's main option to play alongside Bruno Fernandes in midfield.
