Casemiro is in doubt about Manchester United’s Europa League clash with Real Betis this week

Casemiro is skep­ti­cal of Man­ches­ter Unit­ed’s Europa League clash with Real Betis on Thursday.

The Brazil­ian has been a key play­er for the Red Dev­ils since sign­ing from Real Madrid for €80m in the summer.

But even he could­n’t pre­vent Liv­er­pool from los­ing 7–0 on Sunday.

Casemiro suf­fered an injury against the Reds, accord­ing to ESPN.

He was replaced by Mar­cel Sav­itzer in the 77th minute.

Casemiro will be eval­u­at­ed by med­ical staff ahead of the Europa League round-of-16 first leg against Betis at Old Trafford.

To date, he has played in all eight Europa League games for the Red Dev­ils this season.

The expe­ri­enced star played a key role in the 4–3 win against Barcelona.

But he could be on the couch along­side his team­mates Chris­t­ian Erik­sen and Don­ny van de Beek.

Fred has most­ly been Erik­sen’s under­study since Erik­sen’s injury.

With­out Casemiro, Fred could be joined in mid­field by Scott McTom­i­nay or Sab­itzer, who joined in January.

Casemiro has made 35 appear­ances for Unit­ed, scor­ing five goals and pro­vid­ing five assists, as he secured his first Carabao Cup tro­phy in almost six years.
