He had to come off so we have to speak with the doctor, and the medical team, to see how he\u2019s doing. He couldn\u2019t continue the game. We have all seen that. We had to take him off and, hopefully, he\u2019s better [on Sunday].\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Casemiro\u2019s return to fitness and form were among several reasons why United had won four consecutive Premier League games prior to facing Fulham. Rasmus Hojlund\u2019s goals were another and the Danish striker\u2019s recent impact was noticeable in his\u00a0absence through injury.<\/p>\n<p>United travel to face Nottingham Forest in the fifth round of the FA Cup on Wednesday night, followed by Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium in the\u00a0Premier League\u00a0next weekend.<\/p>\n<p>If\u00a0Casemiro\u00a0did suffer a concussion it is unlikely that he will play in either match.<\/p>\n<p>The FA\u2019s guidance on concussion explains: \u201cConcussion should be managed with a short period of relative rest followed by a gradual return to normal activities as symptoms allow. Relative rest involves resting both the body (physical rest) and resting the brain (cognitive rest).<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAfter the initial 24-48 hour period of relative rest, a staged and graduated return to full daily activities and football training is allowed but at a rate that does not worsen existing symptoms, more than mildly, or produce new symptoms.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/image-1482-1024x576.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-829720\"  \/><\/figure>\n<p><!-- AI CONTENT END 1 --><\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Manchester United midfielder Casemiro suffered a possible concussion during the club\u2019s Premier League defeat to Fulham on Saturday but requires further assessment.
