Manchester United are lining up a shock move for Crystal Palace star Adam Wharton as they gear up for a midfield reshuffle. United had looked to bolster in the middle of the park over the summer but were rebuffed in their efforts to sign Brighton's Carlos Baleba. However, they have since turned their attention to Wharton, with Kobbie Mainoo and Casemiro both on the Old Traffford chopping block.
Manchester United midfielder Casemiro has revealed that his name has been spelled incorrectly since his early days at Sao Paulo and he never changed it out of superstition. The Brazilian explained how a one-time printing error led to a career-long identity that stuck with him across Real Madrid, Brazil and Manchester United.
Casemiro has received the backing of his former Real Madrid and current Brazil head coach Carlo Ancelotti to wear the captain's armband for the Selecao in the build up to next year's World Cup. Having marked his return to the national team setup after a prolonged absence, Casemiro hasn't lost the trust of Ancelotti, who has urged the resurgent Manchester United man to "set an example everyday."
Mark Clattenburg has lifted the lid on a spat he had with Jurgen Klopp that led to the former Premier League referee telling the German to 'f*ck off'.

Following the release of EA Sports FC 26, GOAL's Front Three have stepped in to amend some player ratings, with Casemiro, Cole Palmer and Harry Kane's numbers all adjusted.
Ruben Amorim put up a passionate defence of Casemiro as he insisted that the Brazilian showed he "cares" with his reckless red card against Chelsea. The Brazilian midfielder had already found the net to double United’s lead, only to undo his own good work with a reckless challenge just before half-time. Already carrying a yellow, he lunged into another rash foul, leaving the referee with no choice but to send him packing.
Manchester United and Chelsea played out one of the wildest and most exhilarating halves of football in Premier League history at the Old Trafford on Saturday, with both teams having a man sent off in the first 45 minutes. In the process, the English rivals became responsible for setting an unbelievably bizarre Premier League record.
Casemiro's agent has revealed the Brazilian's three closest Manchester United team-mates as he has taken new signing under his wings. Since Ruben Amorim's arrival at United, Casemiro has taken on the role of a key veteran in midfield alongside club captain Bruno Fernandes. The Brazilian was linked with a transfer to Saudi Arabia in the summer, but he is happy to continue at Old Trafford.
Brazil eased past Chile with a 3-0 win at the Maracana in World Cup qualifying, but the match was not without controversy.

Despite the ugly challenge, the veteran midfielder escaped with just a yellow card and avoided dismissal.
Casemiro has insisted that he is "very happy" at Manchester United, shutting down speculation over his future. The Brazilian midfield general, often painted as a fading star on the wrong side of 30, came out swinging after United’s 1-0 defeat to Arsenal, insisting he remains fully committed to the club.
