Casemiro becomes latest football star to move from Nike brand deal

There was a big win for Adidas over the past week.

They have managed to grab Casemiro from Nike after a career-long association with the sports giant.

Casemiro was seen wearing Adidas Predators when Manchester United beat Aston Villa 2-1 at Villa Park on Sunday, as per the Daily Mail.
