Casemiro determines the name of his replacement at Real Madrid: “He has personality and quality”

Carlos Henrique Casemiro assessed the current situation at Real Madrid in statements to AS newspaper and talked about his heir in the team. The Brazilian confirmed, in addition, that Mbappe “impressed” the Bernabeu and opened the doors of the white club, wide, for the signing that will take place this summer.

The Real Madrid midfielder attended the microphones of AS newspaper and left his point in his team news. Casemiro, like Fede Valverde, Kroos and Alaba, was also subjected to the analysis of the Clasico that will take place on Sunday at the Santiago Bernabeu.

“There is still a lot in La Liga, there are still 30 points at stake. Now comes Barcelona, ​​the best Barcelona of the season. Then nine more games. The most beautiful things are yet to come, and the most important too.

For Casemiro, it is essential that Karim Benzema be present and he reflected this in his statements: “I hope he can play because Karim is essential for us. Anyone would miss a player like him. He has a high level of play and is confident in himself.”

He added about the French striker: “If Benzema can’t play in the end, someone else will, but reaching the level that Karim has reached now is not easy. But hey, against PSG we couldn’t all be there and we already saw what the team did.”

He also analyzed Real Madrid’s position in the Champions League after the draw against Chelsea in the quarter-finals: “The history of this team weighs a lot and the competitors know it. There are 13 Champions League, and this is no coincidence. It is the result of a lot of work done by many players throughout history.”

He also explained: “It is true that football is the right time and that teams have better and worse. But when you arrive in Madrid, and the other teams know it, you know that a difficult match awaits you not only because of the quality of the team but also because of the history and the weight of the Bernabéu. What happens in our stadium does not happen in any other stadium in the world. It only happens here, in Madrid.”

Casemiro also spoke about the signing of Kylian Mbappe and his feelings in the PSG dressing room after visiting the Santiago Bernabeu: “I am sure he is a fan but what really impressed him was the fans, who went to the end and were very important in Madrid’s victory over PSG. . Haaland and Mbappe, they are not Madrid players and I can’t say anything. I see their goals and how they play and they are great players.”

He also spoke, directly, about his successor in his position at Real Madrid and referred directly to Antonio Blanco: “Blanco is growing a lot. He’s young and we can’t put too much pressure on him. I think he is a footballer who is able to play in the first team because he has character and quality, but he has to burn in his age stages first before integrating into the first team fully.”
