Casemiro explains why he decided to leave Real Madrid

Casemiro reveals why he swapped Madrid for Manchester United.

The Brazilian midfielder has quickly established as a marquee player for Erik ten Hag since his arrival last summer.

Casemiro joined Man United last season ending his seven-year spell with Real Madrid where he won a staggering 18 trophies.

He has already established himself as a club legend at the Santiago Bernabeu.

He will now become a guaranteed starter at Man United due to his spell-bounding performances last season for the Red Devils.

Casemiro said: “I had several motives that one ends up weighing in the balance and ends up compensating. Speaking of reasons… of course, I spoke to my family. It is important to talk to my family. They accepted that everything was going to be fine”.

He added: “There is a time to leave the club, to leave a big club. There are ages when you have that will, that strength to move. I would also say that if it had been two years ago, I wouldn’t have left.

“If it had been two or three years ago, I wouldn’t have left Real Madrid to go to another big club in Europe. There is an ambition to want to play in another league”.
