Speaking to GE Globo (via ), the Reds midfielder explained: "I remember when Casemiro arrived at Real Madrid Castilla, at that time there was only Spanish in the team. You get along well with the guys, they were all good people, boys of similar age, but when there’s a Brazilian on the team, it’s different, right? You automatically get closer to the guy; you start to have daily reviews. "Despite being someone who disputes position with me, it can be said that our relationship is good. He’s a guy I’ve had contact with, I talk normally with him. Now that he’s come to England, I’ve talked to him at the national team, I asked him how the adaptation was going, leaving a club where he spent nine years." Fabinho added: "Casemiro is an experienced guy, he was very successful at Real Madrid, he is doing well at Manchester United. Despite being a guy with whom I compete for position, I get along very well, because I’ve played with him, and I know him well."
