CASEMIRO skipped Manchester United’s FA Cup after-party for a Saturday evening holiday flight.
The Brazilian was pictured with his family jetting off for a holiday despite the rest of the Man Utd team heading to a night of celebrations led by Rasmus Hojlund.
After filling in the last few games at centre-back and starting each of their last ten games in all competitions, the 32-year-old was dropped to the bench by Erik ten Hag for tactical reasons.
But upon picking up an injury, Casemiro was then replaced in the matchday squad by defender Willy Kambwala.
Ten Hag said on the his absence: “Cas is not 100 per cent.
“Also we want in that space around Phil Foden, we need a strong defence.”
However, he took part in the celebrations on the pitch and in the dressing room.
Casemiro’s wife Anna Mariana shared a picture to her Instagram page of him and their two children, Sara and Caio, sitting on a jet ready for take off.
Anna, who married the midfielder in 2014, captioned the post: “Gone on vacation…. 
.”
And the flight may be a perfect metaphor to describe the former Real Madrid star’s future at Man Utd.

The club will listen to offers for the midfielder, who cost Man Utd an initial £60million two summers ago, but may have trouble finding someone who will match his wages of around £300,000.
A first successful season with the Red Devils where he was one of the most important players in the team gave way to a well below-par one this season.
He fired back at his critics in an interview with Sky Sports last week, saying: “I was considered one of the best signings of the Premier League last season, and now I’m not worth anything anymore?
“The criticism is disrespectful. So when it’s lacking respect, then it’s worrying, and I don’t have to respect that either.”
However, his massive wages have made the chances of a move back to Europe appear bleak.
Saudi Pro League Club Al-Nassr reportedly hold a firm transfer interest in bringing him to the Riyadh-based team to join old team-mate Cristiano Ronaldo.
Another star who went to Man Utd from Madrid, Raphael Varane, has already announced he is leaving the club when his contract expires.
SunSport's verdict on Man Utd flops
Sir Jim Ratcliffe and Ineos have a busy summer ahead to get Man Utd's squad in order for next season. Below SunSport gives it verdict on how they should deal with the Red Devils flops this summer.
Andre Onana – STAY: After a dodgy start at Old Trafford Onana has proven to be one of the more reliable members of the squad this season despite being peppered with shots constantly.
Altay Bayindir – GO: Reports in February suggested Bayindir was unhappy with his bit part role at Man Utd amid interest from Turkish giants Galatasaray. If profit can be made on a sale then it should be done.
Tom Heaton – STAY: Veteran goalkeeper Heaton, 38, is a reliable back-up and is on a relatively small wage at the club. So long as he is happy it makes sense to keep him.
Aaron Wan-Bissaka – GO: Wan-Bissaka, 26, has never managed to make the right-back position his own. With his contract up in 2025 it makes sense to cash in now.
Diogo Dalot – STAY: Dalot, 26, has been one of Man Utd’s most consistent performers this season.
Raphael Varane – GO: If it wasn’t for his injury record there would be a strong shout to keep Varane, but costs need to be cut to allow the squad to be freshened up.
Harry Maguire – GO: Maguire has showed he has the right character to be at Man Utd but overall ability and desired profile are another matter, with Maguire too slow to play in a high line defence.
Lisandro Martinez – STAY: Martinez, 26, is second to none in terms of build up play. He needs a long-term defensive partner on the right side and to cut out the injuries which have plagued him this season.
Jonny Evans – GO: Veteran campaigner Evans could easily be on the stay list if he was only going to be a bit part player. But he has shown his advanced years at times this season.
Victor Lindelof – GO: Lindelof, 29, has been reliable if not unremarkable in his Man Utd career. He has one year left on his contract so should be moved on if a decent transfer fee can be got for him.
Willy Kambwala – STAY: He should be given the opportunity to mature for a few years behind a senior CB pairing before stepping into the first team as a starter or being moved on.
Luke Shaw – GO: One of the Premier League’s best left-backs when fit, Shaw has been a good servant when available. But alas that has been his Achilles heel once again this season.
Tyrell Malacia – STAY: Malacia, 24, was decent enough to earn some merit in his first season at Man Utd before injury ended his season and inadvertently led to his second season being a write off.
Sofyan Amrabat – GO: Amrabat, 27, looked like a world beater at the Qatar World Cup with Morocco. But he’s had an underwhelming season in England and his loan spell will almost certainly not be made permanent.
Casemiro – GO: An alarming physical decline has seen him turn from key star to burden. If a club is willing to buy the 32-year-old – who has two more years on his contract – then United should snatch their hand off.
Christian Eriksen – GO: Eriksen proved a useful asset and Ineos should look to bring in another player with similar traits, but frankly his legs have looked gone towards the end of this season.
Kobbie Mainoo – STAY: The first of the so-called untouchables, Mainoo has been a rare glimmer of hope in the Red Devils midfield this season.
Mason Mount – STAY: Mount can be given the benefit of the doubt until summer 2025 at least after a debut season riddled with injury.
Scott McTominay – STAY: McTominay, 27, has proven himself to be a brilliant plan B off the bench this season, and that is exactly why Ineos should look to keep him.
Bruno Fernandes – STAY: Man Utd’s best player since his arrival just over four years ago, Fernandes, 29, remains second-to-none when it comes to creating chances while his tenacity boosts those around him.
Antony – GO: There’s a case to argue that Antony may be the worst pound-for-pound signing in Premier League history. Despite some memorable moments he simply isn’t Man Utd quality.
Anthony Martial – GO: Ultimately Martial needs to be let go when his deal runs out this summer after an appalling injury record of late.
Marcus Rashford – STAY: As easy as it would be to say Rashford should leave the club this summer, it is difficult to look at the market and find many available players capable of scoring 30 goals a season.
Alejandro Garnacho – STAY: Another third of the untouchables trio, Garnacho has made the right-wing his own since coming into it. He’s a raw talent but has shown he has the quality to improve.
Rasmus Hojlund – STAY: A slow burner in his first Man Utd season, the 21-year-old has often been starved of supply which has led to him being unable to get the goals his movement and unselfish play often merits.
Amad Diallo – STAY: In the fleeting moments he has been on the pitch for Man Utd this season, Diallo has looked dangerous and exciting. He should be given a chance to flourish with some proper chances in the first team across a whole season.
In fact, £150m worth of talent is said to have been put up for sale by Man Utd’s new co-owners Sir Jim Ratcliffe and Ineos, including Antony, Christian Eriksen and Casemiro.
SunSport delivered our verdict on the futures of the Man Utd players ahead of the colossal rebuild job this summer, with 12 players on the chopping board.
Man Utd manager Ten Hag has also seen his future questioned heavily around the final.
Reports suggest an end of season review will be conducted later this week which will confirm Ten Hag’s fate, though SunSport revealed the Dutchman will get sacked regardless of the Cup final victory.
Speaking on his future, Ten Hag said: “Two trophies in two seasons and three finals. That’s not bad.
“If they don’t want me any more I go somewhere else to win trophies. That is what I do.”
