Hi Casemiro,
I just wanted to take a moment to say thank you. Thank you for everything you have done, and everything you have given to Manchester United.
It has been an absolute pleasure to watch you play on the Old Trafford pitch.
I still remember when you got announced as a signing, and I thought, ‘wow, I’m going to see one of the best central defensive midfielders in my lifetime play at Old Trafford.’
You have brought so many amazing qualities to this Manchester United side – leadership, experience, quality, but the most important is character. Your character has been absolutely immense.
No matter what happens, you will always come back stronger. You have set an example to everyone in that dressing room and to fans as well.
You have been much more than a midfield signing. You have stepped up in massive moments – anyone would have thought we’d signed you as a striker with the amount of headers you’ve scored and goals in clutch moments.
You played a massive part in us winning the Carabao Cup and FA Cup, and what you’ll be remembered for is an unbelievable final season where you’ve gone out on a high getting Manchester United Champions League football.
You have been pivotal, even though you’ve known you won’t be playing those games for United, you gave your all every single week.
That shows how much of your heart is at this football club. For that, we all love you.
Thank you for never turning your back on us. Thank you for always demanding more for Manchester United and for knowing deep down the club deserve more. Thank you for always standing tall and never shying away. Thank you for the memories and for always wearing that shirt with pride.
This isn’t just a goodbye, it’s a thank you.
So thank you for everything and I wish you nothing but the best for the future, because you deserve it.
Once a Red, always a Red.
