As Carlos Casemiro enters the Casa do Brasil college in Madrid, he is greeted by the exclamation of a passerby, “Casemiro, you’re not that big!”
Much like how the sons of Scotland in Braveheart did not imagine William Wallace to be human, the 27-year-old’s standing at Real Madrid is so great that in the eyes of the supporters he measures 2 meters tall and shoots “bolts of lightning from his arse”, to quote Mel Gibson from the film.
“I’m 1.83 meters and 84 kilograms. I’ll have to put on weight to be bigger!” Jokes the Brazil captain. And so it begins.
