you can convert the string using strtolower() php function to convert string to lower case and then match

$array=['admin','root'];
$role = strtolower($request->role);

if ( in_array($role,$array) ) {
   if( $role == 'admin') {
     //my logic
   }
}

Assuming you only have 1 word roles like in your example, and you only need to match your specified case and all lowercase, apply ucfirst() on the role.

$array=['Admin','Root'];
$role = ucfirst($request->role);

if(in_array($role,$array)){
if($role== 'Admin'){
     //my logic
  }
}

This will match Admin and admin but not AdMiN or any other casing.
