Casemiro spent a long time off the pitch after the rematch against Betis in the round of 16 of the Europa League. The Manchester United midfielder had to serve a four-game ban at home following his sending off against Southampton in March.
While watching his team from the stands, the Brazilian star would have used the time to watch as many games as possible and calculate what the “Red Devils” need for the rest of the season.

Casemiro’s representative predicts that the Brazilian will be a coach
Óscar Ribot, from the ‘Best of You’ agency, that represents Casemiro, revealed in dialogue with The Guardian that the United midfielder has watched many games during his suspension. “Watch hundreds of matches, from any league and team. He says he doesn’t see himself as a coach, but he will be. It already is, only in the body of a footballer. This month, he’s seen it all, figuring out what points they need and how many days to go,” Ribot said.
Despite being sent off more times than expected, Casemiro was a vital addition for United this campaign. His leadership and winning mentality are unquestionable, so it would not be surprising to see him coach the day he decides to hang up his boots.
