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.
Active during break
Casemiro (undisclosed) played in each of Brazil's two friendlies in the international break.
ANALYSIS
Casemiro should be available after suffering a minor knock in his last EPL appearance against Tottenham. He's in strong form with three goals and two assists over his latest eight matches played considering both club and national team action. Thus, he could be expected to retain a starting spot over Manuel Ugarte as long as there are no fatigue-related issues.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Set to leave for good?
Casemiro won't sign a new contract with Manchester United once his current deal expires in the summer of 2026, according to The Sun.
ANALYSIS
The veteran midfielder has been a consistent presence in Manchester United's midfield, but he's not expected to extend his tenure at Old Trafford past this season. That's because the Red Devils are looking to trim their wage bill, and parting ways with both Casemiro and Jadon Sancho could save Manchester United well over $30 million in yearly wages.
