Updating user data - ASP.NET Identity

I've added custom fields to the ApplicationUser class
I've also created a form through which the user can enter/edit the fields.
However for some reason I'm not able to update the fields in the database.

[HttpPost]
[ActionName("Edit")]
[ValidateAntiForgeryToken]
public async Task<ActionResult> Manage(EditProfileViewModel model)
{
    if (ModelState.IsValid)
    {
        // Get the current application user
        var user = User.Identity.GetApplicationUser();

        // Update the details
        user.Name = new Name { First = model.FirstName, Last = model.LastName, Nickname = model.NickName };
        user.Birthday = model.Birthdate;

        // This is the part that doesn't work
        var result = await UserManager.UpdateAsync(user);

        // However, it always succeeds inspite of not updating the database
        if (!result.Succeeded)
        {
            AddErrors(result);
        }
    }

    return RedirectToAction("Manage");
}

My problem is similar to MVC5 ApplicationUser custom properties, but that seems to use an older version of Identity because the IdentityManager class doesn't seem to exist.

Can someone guide me on how to update User info in the database?

UPDATE: If I include all the fields in the register form, all the values are stored in the appropriate field in a new record of the Users table from the database.

I don't know to make changes to the fields of an existing user (row in the users table). UserManager.UpdateAsync(user) doesn't work.

Also note my issue is more Identity oriented than EntityFramework

Excellent!!! 

IdentityResult result = await UserManager.UpdateAsync(user);

I am using the new EF & Identity Core and I have the same issue, with the addition that I've got this error:

The instance of entity type cannot be tracked because another instance of this type with the same key is already being tracked.

With the new DI model I added the constructor's Controller the context to the DB.

I tried to see what are the conflict with _conext.ChangeTracker.Entries() and adding AsNoTracking() to my calls without success.

I only need to change the state of my object (in this case Identity) 

_context.Entry(user).State = EntityState.Modified;
var result = await _userManager.UpdateAsync(user);

And worked without create another store or object and mapping.

I hope someone else is useful my two cents.

I am using .Net Core 3.1 or higher version.Please follow the solution:

  public class UpdateAssignUserRole
    {
        public string username { get; set; }
        public string rolename { get; set; }
        public bool IsEdit { get; set; }

    }

 private async Task UpdateSeedUsers(UserManager<IdentityUser> userManager, UpdateAssignUserRole updateassignUsername)
        {
            IList<Users> Users = await FindByUserName(updateassignUsername.username);

            if (await userManager.FindByNameAsync(updateassignUsername.username) != null)
            {
                var user = new IdentityUser
                {
                    UserName = updateassignUsername.username,
                    Email = Users[0].Email,
 
                };
                var result = await userManager.FindByNameAsync(updateassignUsername.username);
                if (result != null)
                {
                    IdentityResult deletionResult = await userManager.RemoveFromRolesAsync(result, await userManager.GetRolesAsync(result));
                    if (deletionResult != null)
                    {
                        await userManager.AddToRoleAsync(result, updateassignUsername.rolename);
                    }
                }
            }

        }
