Manchester United have opted not to appeal the red card Casemiro received against Southampton.

This means the Brazil midfielder will miss their next four games.

Casemiro was shown a straight red card by referee Anthony Taylor with 11 minutes left before the interval.

Taylor had initially produced a yellow card for the tackle.

But VAR advised him to check the pitchside monitor and the card was changed to a red one.

It was Casemiro’s second sending off in three Premier League games.

And according to the Manchester Evening News, United boss Erik ten Hag had no issue with the decision and the Red Devils will not appeal the suspension.
