Last season, the Red Devils struggled in the middle of the park as Casemiro looked woefully off-colour as he struggled to adjust to the frenetic pace of the Premier League.
That trend has continued in pre-season and with INEOS unable to move on the Brazilian, a deal for top defensive midfield target Manuel Ugarte has not materialised.
United are facing a funds crunch and need player sales to raise the cash required to land the Uruguayan. Paris Saint-Germain’s asking price is well beyond United and they have exited the race and will only consider coming back in should the Ligue 1 club lower their asking price.
