Casemiro to be dropped by Ten Hag?

Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag could drop Casemiro from the starting line-up for tomorrow's FA Cup final against Manchester City.



The Brazil international has had a difficult second season with the Red Devils and he has been hugely inconsistent with his performances.

There have been calls for him to be dropped to the bench and The Athletic claim that it could happen against Pep Guardiola's side.

United have had some training sessions where Casemiro has been absent this week which suggests that the Brazilian could be benched.

Sofyan Amrabat has started alongside Kobbie Mainoo in the centre of the park over the past few games and he could retain his place ahead of Casemiro.

United will be massive underdogs for the FA Cup final. Regardless of the result, Ten Hag is expected to be sacked after the Wembley showdown.

The hierarchy have already informed the Dutchman of their decision. They could replace him with Ipswich Town boss Kieran McKenna soon.
