I’m bringing my Madrid experience to Manchester United: Casemiro  

The Brazilian star departed Madrid on Monday after his farewell speech.

• August 22, 2022

Brazilian midfielder Casemiro says he is bringing his ‘values’ and experience from Real Madrid to help struggling Manchester United win. 

“I want to bring my values to Man United, everything that Real Madrid taught me, to win from day to day, from every training session, Casemiro said. 

“I want to live the Premier League from the inside. At 30 years old I am in the best moment of my career. I enjoy everything I have.”

The Brazilian star departed Madrid on Monday after his farewell speech at the Santiago Bernabeu where he dismissed claims that he left the Spanish giant for financial reasons. 

Casemiro, 30, joined Madrid in 2013 from Sao Paulo. Rated as one of the best defensive midfielders in the world, Casemiro has made 222 appearance for Madrid, scoring 24 goals. 

During his spell at Madrid, he won five Championship League titles and three Laliga titles with the Spanish giant.

The Brazilian star will be United’s fourth signing this summer transfer window once the deal is concluded. 

United have signed Christian Eriksen, Tyrell Malacia and Lisandro Martinez earlier in sumer transfer window. 

The Red Devils have had a bad start this season, losing their first two games against Brigton and Brentford under Erik Ten Hag.
