The Brazilian, who turns 34 in February 2026, has six months left on his current deal with the Premier League side and is already reflecting on what comes next in his career. His club have an option to extend by a further season.
“Football is my life, right? So it’s inevitable that I’ll stay involved somehow,” he said. “But I think my wife and family will want some time for themselves too.”
Casemiro explained that while he intends to stay connected to the game, he values balance and short-term focus rather than long-term projections.
“I’m someone who believes in planning, but I like to set short-term goals. Of course, it’s inevitable to think about reaching the next World Cup in good shape, but I can’t expect to even be there if I’m not doing well at Manchester United first.”
The midfielder remains an influential figure under Carlo Ancelotti for Brazil, wearing the captain’s armband on several occasions. Even so, his immediate focus is entirely on performance and consistency in England.
“Now I’m focused on being ready for the next call-up, training well tomorrow, and playing a great game at the weekend. That’s how it goes.”
Known for his leadership and discipline, Casemiro has become one of United’s most respected veterans. As his contract nears its end, questions naturally arise about whether the club will look to keep him, especially considering his huge salary.
Taking a pay cut for the renewal is an option.
For now, though, his words suggest a player who still sees purpose in the daily grind. One training session and one match at a time.
