Manchester United coach Erik ten Hag has commended midfielder Casemiro for being a role model and leader to his fellow players, both on and off the pitch.
According to ten Hag, he specifically obtained players who were capable of adding character and leadership through recruitment.
Among these players was Brazilian midfielder Casemiro, who at 30 years old, commanded a deal worth £70 million with Real Madrid.
Despite a slow start, he has emerged as one of the club’s most important players this season.
His influence spreads beyond the field as he drives standards up at Carrington and elevates the level of his teammates’ play.
Teammates have made remarks about his command in the dressing room, noting that he will not settle for less than excellence.
During a recent match where United won a trophy at Wembley Stadium, Ten Hag spoke about an important moment when Casemiro pulled aside Bruno Fernandes to discuss his approach to taking shots instead of passing to other teammates during gameplay.
