Casemiro is currently playing for Manchester United. |
It turns out that "Casemiro"—the name that has become iconic for Real Madrid and now Manchester United—was never his real name. In a recent interview, the Brazilian midfielder revealed a fact that surprised fans.
“My name is Carlos Henrique Casimiro, with the letter I, not E,” he told One Football. “It was a mistake… but it stuck with me for the rest of my life.”
Casemiro recounted that when he played for São Paulo, the team mistakenly printed his name on his jersey, changing Casimiro to Casemiro. But instead of asking for it corrected, the young midfielder decided to keep it as it was: “I played extremely well in that match. And I’m superstitious, so I said, ‘Just leave it like that, things are going well.’”
That small mistake turned into a blessing, and "Casemiro" quickly became a global brand – a name associated with a string of titles, from the Champions League to the Copa America.
Now, at 33, the Brazilian midfielder laughs as he recalls the "spelling mistake" that has plagued him for over a decade: "My real name is Carlos Henrique Casimiro. But the name Casemiro... has stayed with me forever."
One wrong letter – and a legend is written.
