Casemiro spoke after officially confirming his move to Manchester United. Still, he was pretty vague when the reporter asked him if any of his former teammates told him about the new club. He said that Fred and Raphael Varane told him to come, but he didn’t say anything about Cristiano Ronaldo – apart from the Portuguese being a great player.Can’t wait to see you out there, @Casemiro 😍🤳#MUFC pic.twitter.com/ozpzGVRemZ— Manchester United (@ManUtd) August 25, 2022 The former Real Madrid midfielder already knew a lot about United before he completed his transfer but says he confided in both Fred and Varane about what to expect before his move.”Well, before coming here, I spoke to Fred. He’s a friend who I’ve played alongside in the national team for a good number of games and years. I know him well. He’s a great player and that’s why he plays for Manchester United and for the Brazilian national team, which is difficult to get into. So, I have a special relationship with him and of course he’s a great player and that’s why he plays for Manchester United.”##NAJAVA_MECA_6588202##Di Maria’s wife: ‘I wanted to kill myself in Manchester’Casemiro didn’t confirm nor deny that he spoke to CR7. “Yes, I’ve spoken to Rafa. He tells me he’s happy. His family is very happy here in Manchester, and I feel Manchester United have a great centre-back in him and, as we know, Cristiano is up there as one of the best players in the history of football, and I think he’ll keep achieving things.”Strange.🇧🇷 @Casemiro is ready 🔜 pic.twitter.com/vUCrupcYjy— 433 (@433) August 25, 2022 Casemiro is a hard-working player who is used to winning. Manchester United will need that kind of personality to drive the team forward.”Of course, everyone wants to win matches, win in training, learn in training. But I’m one of those players who wants to go home and know I’ve done my job. That’s my philosophy, my mentality and now it’s all about giving everything for Manchester United.”
