Real Madrid defender David Alaba has backed Casemiro's decision to leave the LaLiga club in search of a new challenge after the Brazilian midfielder signed for Manchester United.

Casemiro, who won the Champions League on five occasions with Real Madrid, signed a four-year contract with the option of an additional year at Old Trafford after making the decision to leave Los Blancos in the transfer window.

The defensive midfielder - who signed for £60million rising to £70m - made 336 appearances for the Spanish giants, registering 31 goals and 29 assists.

"Television money has been significantly higher in England for years and yet it hasn't resulted in English teams winning everything.

Thank God not all players look only at salary but also at winning," Kroos told the OMR podcast. However, Madrid defender Alaba has insisted that he is fully supportive of Casemiro’s choice to leave the club to join United.
