The affection from MU fans moved Casemiro's wife to tears. |
During the 3-1 victory against Aston Villa on March 15th, the fans in the stands at Old Trafford chanted "one more year." They urged the club's management to keep the Brazilian midfielder as he was set to leave at the end of the season. That very moment brought tears to the eyes of Casemiro's family.
"My wife cried when she heard the fans singing like that. It was something very special," Casemiro revealed in an interview with the club's media. He also admitted that he hoped to remain calm in his final match, although he understood that saying goodbye is always a difficult moment.
Joining Manchester United from Real Madrid in 2022 for a fee of £70 million, Casemiro quickly became a key player in the midfield. After four seasons, the 34-year-old midfielder made 155 appearances, contributing to titles such as the Carabao Cup and the FA Cup.
This season, he continues to play a crucial role in manager Michael Carrick's system, while also forming a strong partnership with young talent Kobbie Mainoo. His header from Bruno Fernandes' corner kick against Aston Villa is proof of his influence.
Although there was still a possibility of activating a clause to extend the contract for another year if he reached a sufficient number of appearances in the Premier League, both sides agreed to terminate the clause from January. This move paves the way for a parting of ways at the end of the 2025/26 season.
Casemiro has a maximum of seven more games to play for the "Red Devils," starting with the match against Leeds United on April 14th. For him, his journey at Old Trafford could end with tears from his family and affection from the fans.
