Fans all say the same thing as Casemiro immediately introduces himself to Roy Keane in Man Utd unveiling

And he was introduced to the Old Trafford faithful just before United churned out a shock 2-1 victory over rivals Liverpool.

But before getting comfortable at the Theatre of Dreams, Casemiro made sure to greet United legend Roy Keane.

His immediate acknowledgment of the fiery Irishman led fans to claim the 30-year-old knew he had to pay homage to Keane before slotting into United’s midfield.

Keane made 472 appearances in all competitions whilst dominating United’s midfield, and supporters joked that Casemiro had to get his seal of approval in order to occupy the pundit’s old role.

One fan mused: “Casemiro knows ball. First person he walked to was Roy Keane.”

While another quipped: “Getting in the good books early smart man.”

A third added: “Lad gets it, lad went straight into the principle’s office on his first day.”

Another supporter chipped in with a photo of a torch being passed on – signalling a changing of the guard.

Plus, one more user interjected: “Keane seal of approval, he’s the man for the midfield.”

Casemiro wasn’t the only star to reserve special treatment for Keane on the night.

His former Real pal Cristiano Ronaldo singled Keane out for an embrace ahead of the game – whilst brutally shunning Jamie Carragher.

However, Ronaldo hasn’t had much to say to Casemiro either as the midfielder revealed the Portuguese ace is yet to reach out to him despite their reunion at United.
