"Only once did I doubt my move to Manchester United. I went to talk to Ancelotti. I went to his office and he already knew. I opened the door and saw tears on his face. He said to me: "Casemiro, I don't know why I'm crying, but I love you very much and I don't want you to leave". It was a difficult moment, because I realised how many people loved me there, but I had already given my word, and my word is more important than anything else," Casemiro told El Chiringuito de Jugones.
