And until now he has been living temporarily in the Lowry Hotel with his wife Anna Mariana – who he has been married to for eight years.

But on Wednesday he was finally spotted loading his things into a car as he set off to his new home in Manchester.

Casemiro could be seen getting into a Bentley after they had put suitcases and other bits of clothing in a black vehicle.

Anna Mariana was also seen putting a Manchester United branded bag in the car.

It comes as Casemiro has made three substitute appearances for the Red Devils.

The Brazilian, 30, played more than 300 times for Madrid, winning three LaLiga titles and an astonishing five Champions Leagues.

Now he has arrived at Old Trafford to team up with former Los Blancos team-mates Cristiano Ronaldo and Raphael Varane.

But he is yet to replace Scott McTominay in Erik ten Hag’s starting line-up.

Casemiro came to England following United’s back-to-back defeats at the hands of Brighton and Brentford.

Since then though, they have won four games in a row – their best Prem run since April 2021.

And McTominay’s aggressive, tough-tackling style has seen him retain his place in the team despite the signing of Casemiro.

The ex-Madrid man could make his full debut for United on Thursday when they host Real Sociedad in their opening Europa League game.

Ten Hag’s side then face Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park on Sunday.
