Manchester United has been making a lot of moves in recent times, bringing in Brazilian internationals Casimiru and Anthony Maffeos one after another, making a total of 10 "Samba Warriors" in the club's history. However, looking back at the performance of the Brazilian players in the Red Devils' team, it is quite disappointing. Whether Casimiru and Anthony can help the team to achieve good results remains to be seen.
In the history of Manchester United, the most disappointing Brazilian player is Keith Bacon. He helped Brazil win the 2002 World Cup and joined United the following year, but due to injury problems, he only played two seasons, making 20 appearances in the Premier League and scoring only two goals before being sold to Cedars.
Another Brazilian midfielder, Lurs Andersen, who was once favored by Manchester United manager Alex Ferguson, was also ill-fated, joining United from Porto in 2007 for a then-high price of 30 million euros, but failed to play at the right level and spent most of his eight seasons as a substitute.
The performance of Daschwald brothers is also quite mediocre. As for Anders Penrina in recent years, he was jokingly called the "King of Warm-Up Games" and was constantly sent out on loan, but this season he officially moved to Fulham. Left back Aleksandar Dinis, who played for Manchester United for two seasons, was unable to get a chance to play and has been loaned out to Xavier this season.
Currently, Fite in the team is also criticized and has lost his starting position recently. United can only hope that Kasmiru and Anthony, who were brought in at great expense despite the Samba Warriors' black history, will bring good luck.
