Manchester United signing Casemiro's move is being held up.

The Brazil midfielder has agreed a five-year contract with United after Real Madrid accepted a €70m offer.

Casemiro will be forced to miss tonight's clash with Liverpool.

Despite several attempts by United to speed up the procedures for his registration, the midfielder is still waiting for his visa and therefore cannot be registered to the Premier League for the moment.

In all likelihood, the first match for Casemiro will be next Saturday's trip to Southampton.
