Carrick Reveals Casemiro Exit Was “Decided Before I Arrived,” Backs Star’s Final Push
A major piece of the club’s summer transformation has been confirmed, straight from the manager. Michael Carrick has revealed that the decision for Casemiro to leave at the season’s end was already in motion before he took the helm.
In a candid update, Carrick stated, “That path was decided before I arrived.” This clarification shifts the narrative, framing the Brazilian’s departure not as a new managerial choice, but as the conclusion of a pre-existing club strategy.
Importantly, Carrick was quick to dispel any concerns about Casemiro’s commitment for the remaining games. “I’ve had that conversation with him directly, and he’s desperate to finish well. There are no doubts about him at all.”
The message is clear: while the chapter is closing, the final paragraphs are to be written with full intensity. Expect a motivated Casemiro, playing not just for pride, but to cement his legacy with a strong farewell.
