With Casemiro strongly rumored to be leaving Old Trafford this summer, the Spanish club Marbella FC has playfully hinted at the Brazilian “joining” their team. In reality, the five-time Champions League winner has become the latest stakeholder in the club following their second consecutive promotion.

Marbella FC announced this development on their website with the headline “Casemiro joins Marbella FC,” stating: “Marbella Futbol Club is pleased to announce that Carlos Henrique Casemiro, star of Manchester United, the Brazilian national team and five-time winner of the Champions League, becomes a new shareholder of our entity as of today.”

“The enthusiasm and commitment that Casemiro demonstrates with the Marbella FC project are evident with his incorporation into the club’s shareholding structure. Not only Marbella but also the entire city, feel proud that an athlete of his global dimension wants to belong to our family.”

“The confirmation of Casemiro as a new member of the board of directors is a historic opportunity for the club to continue projecting its institutional and sporting strategy in elite football.”

“With this move, Marbella strengthens its roadmap by allying itself with a strategic partner who will help the general growth of our institution through their experience. The passion, leadership and sense of responsibility that have always guided Casemiro in his professional career are more than justified reasons why from today we open the doors of our house to him.”

“Welcome to Marbella, Case!”

In the official announcement, Casemiro expressed: “It is an honour for me to join the Marbella Futbol Club because my greatest motivation is the spectacular growth possibilities of the club. I have been to Marbella with my family on several occasions and my children, my wife and I are in love with this city, with which we want to be linked for life. Without a doubt, together we will dream big to take Marbella to the top, but now we have to enjoy our wonderful promotion to Primera Federacion.”

After spending two years in the fifth division of Spanish football, Marbella FC has received significant investment over the past couple of years, enabling them to secure two consecutive promotions to the Primera Federación. They topped the Tercera Federación in the 2022-23 season and finished third this season, achieving promotion to Spain’s third tier through the playoffs.

Despite Marbella’s announcement, Casemiro’s future remains uncertain. Manchester United is reportedly still seeking permanent suitors for the 32-year-old, with potential moves to join former teammate Cristiano Ronaldo at Al-Nassr or a transfer to Al-Hilal, their Saudi Pro League rivals, being suggested.
