Casemiro’s extension: in Madrid until 2025!

Casemiro’s is the newest renewal among the senators. The Brazilian midfielder, nicknamed “The Panzer” from the fans, has put the pen to paper to finally finalize the contract extension. The star signed a new deal that will keep him in Madrid wearing the white shirt at least until 2025. This confirms the great importance he has for the team and the admiration that the club has for him and his contribution.

The Brazilian midfielder, whose contract was set to expire in 2023, will follow this way the footsteps of his long time teammates Luka Modric, Dani Carvajal and Lucas Vazquez, who penned new contract extensions before the end of last season and Karim Benzema, Thibaut Courtois and Fede Valverde, who proceeded with their contract renewals this summer as the new season was ready to begin. At the age of 29, this new contract will ensure that Casemiro will be playing out the best years of his career in the Spanish capital.

Even why his journey in Madrid has been extraordinary, nothing has been easy since the start. With determination and hard work he successfully achieved the position as a key player for the Madridista team. It hasn't always been plain sailing for Casemiro at Real Madrid since he signed in 2013. There were originally some doubts around him and he was sent out to Porto on loan for the 2014/15 campaign, but he cemented his place in the side the following season and since then he has been a vital value of the white team.

His time at the club has been laden with silverware because of his defensive work, his ability to balance the game and his strong mentality. The role he plays in the centre of the pitch cannot be understated and he has been one of the first names on the team sheet for a number of seasons now. The great performances have also made him a key player at his home country and being a key player in a National Team like Brazil, where numerous great talents emerge every year, is certainly a top level achievement.

“Casemiro signed his contract extension at Real Madrid City, where he was joined by club president Florentino Pérez. The contract renewal ties the Brazilian midfielder to our club until 30 June 2025. After signing the contract, he was presented with a shirt featuring his name and the number 2025 on the reverse”, informed the Galactico’s official website.
