The 31-year-old, now Brazil’s national-team captain, lifted the Champions League five times while at Real Madrid, the club he represented between 2013 and 2022.
His extraordinary record of winning trophies continued during his first season with the Reds as Casemiro was integral to our Carabao Cup success in 2023, scoring the opening goal during the final win over Newcastle United at Wembley.
Our no.18 continues to be regarded as one of the world’s best midfielders and will no doubt be ready to show what he’s capable of when he returns from a hamstring injury which has kept him out of action for two months.
