Casemiro said he wants to feature for the Real Madrid first team, regardless of being on loan at Madrid s Castilla side.
The 20-year-old is contracted to Sao Paulo but is on loan to Madrid s reserves, and Real have the option to make the move permanent at the end of the season should they so desire.
However, the Brazilian has his sights set on a much higher goal playing for the Spanish side s first team.
I m going to play in the first team of Real Madrid, Casemiro told Lance.
The industrious midfielder s representative, Joseph Lee, is equally confident Casemiro can make the jump for the Spanish powerhouse.
Casemiro is not a player suited for a reserve team, he said.
For us, the aim is not for him to play in the B team, but he will make the necessary adaptations playing for Castilla and then go to the first team.
While the claims of the midfielder and his representative might seem a little presumptuous, Casemiro has already made over 50 appearances for Sao Paulo, won the Under-20 World Cup in 2011 and has three caps for Brazil s senior side.
