According to Jamie Carragher, Casemiro needs to make a move to either Saudi Arabia or Major League Soccer. The former Liverpool defender believes that the 32-year-old midfielder's time at the top level is coming to an end and has urged him to leave Manchester United this summer. Carragher's comments came after United's disappointing 4-0 defeat to Crystal Palace on Monday evening, where Casemiro was one of the team's worst performers.
Due to United's injury crisis, the Brazilian midfielder was forced to play at centre-back against Palace. Unfortunately, he made errors that led to both of the home team's goals, which only added to Carragher's belief that Casemiro's time at the elite level should now be over. "I said at half time he should be brought off, I know there are youngsters on the bench," Carragher said in his post-match analysis for Sky Sports. "But I am serious when I say that Casemiro should know that he only has three games left at the top level - the next two league games and the cup final. After that, he should be thinking about a move to the MLS or Saudi."
Carragher believes that Casemiro's agent and team should advise him to make this move, as it is time for him to call it a day at this level of football. He acknowledges Casemiro's achievements, including winning the Champions League and playing for Brazil and Real Madrid, but says that the saying "leave the football, before the football leaves you" applies here. "The football has left him at this top level," Carragher adds. "He must move on."
When reminded that Casemiro still has two years left on his £350,000-a-week contract, Carragher suggests that United should pay him off and come to some sort of deal. He believes that a player of Casemiro's level should not be putting himself through performances like the one against Crystal Palace, where he was "laughed at" by the opposition. "He is too good for that," Carragher says. "He should not be going through what he's going through now."
In conclusion, Carragher stands by his belief that Casemiro needs to make a move to a different league, away from the top level of football. He urges the midfielder to consider this and make the decision before it is too late. As for Manchester United, they have bigger problems to address and should focus on finding a solution for their current struggles.
