Casemiro and his wife, Anna, could not hold back their tears as they said goodbye to Manchester United. The end of a four-year cycle at the club was documented by the club itself, which released a 40-minute tribute film featuring testimonials from teammates like Diogo Dalot and Matheus Cunha. Casemiro broke down into tears while giving his final message to Manchester United. So beautiful yet heartbreaking. 🥺💔 In a recorded interview before his last game, Casemiro became emotional. “I need to thank you because it has been four incredible years. I love this club, the fans, the people. Thank you very much,” said the visibly moved player. Anna Casemiro also shared the difficulty of the decision. “As a family, we talked a lot and had to make this difficult decision,” she explained. “But I feel that it is the end of a very beautiful chapter. The chant dedicated to him feels like a declaration of love. For us, there is an emptiness in leaving. The love we received through that song means a lot.” Casemiro’s wife spoke about the affection from Manchester United fans during and after games. It is very beautiful to recognize everything the Manchester United fans have done for the player. During his time at Old Trafford, Casemiro played in 111 games, scored 15 goals, and won an FA Cup and a League Cup. His farewell on the pitch took place in May, in a 3-2 victory against Nottingham Forest, where he was substituted to a standing ovation from the fans, who even chanted for “one more year.” The future of Casemiro, 34, will take him to MLS, specifically to Inter Miami, David Beckham’s club, where the Brazilian midfielder will transfer for free, once a dispute with LA Galaxy, who had the right to approach the player first, is resolved. In Manchester, it was decided that the option to extend the contract with Manchester United, worth 375,000 euros per week, would not be activated.
