Casemiro‘s agent believes the Manchester United star is destined to become a coach when he retires, because the Brazilian is obsessed with football.
Since joining United last summer in a £60million deal, the midfielder has become a huge part of Erik ten Hag‘s Red Devils’ side and one of the players of the season.
The good news for United fans is that the 31-year-old is settled at Old Trafford and his agent Oscar Ribot believes the football obsessive has no plans beyond his time in Manchester just yet.
‘Case has signed for four years plus one.’ Ribot said.
‘He’s come to win titles; this month has been hard, but there’s nothing else on his mind.’

Indeed, there seems to be nothing on Casemiro’s mind more than football according to Ribot who also believes that his client is so obsessed with the game, that he’s destined to be a coach – even if the Samba star says he won’t.
‘Taking football away from Case is like taking food from his table, it’s like he can’t live, can’t breathe,’ he added.
‘He wakes up thinking about football and goes to bed thinking about football.He watches hundreds of games: Any team, any league. I’ve seen him watch Chinese games because there is always some detail.
He says he won’t be a coach, but he will. He’s already one in a footballer’s body.
This month, he’s watched everything, calculating the points needed and the days left.’
One place that Casemiro won’t be ending up anytime soon is Juventus, much to the disappointment of Brazilian teammate Danilo.

During an interview with The Athletic, the former Manchester City defender was discussing the impact Brazilian players at the club and admitted he’d love to see Casemiro join him in Turin.
The 31-year-old said; ‘The perception of Brazilian footballers has changed and so where there was once a clash with Juve, all of these players could come here and be in the team for years.
I’d love to have Casemiro. He’d be at home here.’
Casemiro has played 39 times for United this season, scoring five goals. Although his disciplinary record has caused issues for Ten Hag’s side, having been shown a red card twice this season resulting in a four-match ban for the midfield star.
