Manchester United midfielder Casemiro revealed that his real name is actually "Casimiro", but a spelling mistake was used because of his superstition.

In an interview, Casemiro said: "My full name is Carlos Henrique Casimiro (Carlos Henrique). Casimiro, I used an i instead of an e. I remember when I was playing for Sao Paulo, the guy who printed the names made a mistake and he used the letter e. But I did well in that game because I'm a superstitious person, so I said: 'It doesn't have to be. It's time to change, so be it, everything goes well. '"

"So, I have always used the name Casemiro, but my real name is Carlos Enrique Casimiro. The name changed because of a mistake in a game."
