Manager Michael Carrick paid tribute to Casemiro and Malacia on the pitch after the final home game of the season, acknowledging their contributions to the team. Their departures were well known in advance, and the club has been preparing for the loss of these players.

Additionally, young players Sonny Aljofree, James Bailey, and Malachi Sharpe will also leave the club when their contracts expire on June 30. The departures of these players will give Carrick more work to do as he prepares for the new season, particularly in the midfield, where Casemiro's departure will be felt the most.
