AND Manchester United player who survived a horror night against Newcastle United has now agreed to leave the club in the January transfer window, according to a new update.
Another terrible night for Man Utd
It was another dark night for the Red Devils on Monday as they were beaten 2-0 by the Magpies in their Premier League clash at Old Trafford. Although the second-half performance was better than the poor first 45 minutes, this was partly due to the visitors simply taking their foot off the gas.
It was a sobering start to the life of the United head coach Reuben Amorimwho now more than ever will be aware of what a huge job he has ahead of him. He has a squad that needs to be gradually depleted, with too many individuals off the pace this season.
In midfield, Casemiro and Christian Eriksen look like shadows of the players they used to be, while Joshua Zirkzee was replaced before half-time on Monday night, such was his ineffective nature in leading the line.
Fortunately for Amor, January offers United an opportunity to make new signings, and while it remains to be seen how many fresh faces will arrive, the squad is in dire need of some reinforcements, not least to ensure the Red Devils are not embroiled in a nasty Premier League relegation battle .
Man Utd star “agrees to leave” in January

The 32-year-old has had a wonderful career, particularly at Real Madrid, enjoying so much success in the Champions League, while also being an influential figure for the Red Devils during the early part of his time at the club.
What we see now is a shadow of a player who dominated many midfield battles over the years, however, his performance against Newcastle was painful to watch at times. The former Madrid man was so easily bypassed by the Magpies’ midfield of Bruno Guimaraes, Sandro Tonali and Joelinton, with him and Eriksen powerless to match their pace and physicality.
On Monday, Casemiro lost possession 15 timesaccording to Sofascorealso by dribbling past one and missing a great chance, a performance that perfectly outlined why his United career should end.
