Casemiro has branded Bruno Fernandes as the best player at Manchester United prior to his arrival.
The Brazilian is making a case for earning that title himself this season after helping the Reds lift their first piece of silverware in almost six years in Sunday’s Carabao Cup success. His headed goal broke the deadlock at Wembley before Marcus Rashford fired in his 25th strike of the season, an effort that was initially given as a Sven Botman own goal before later being overturned.
The 2-0 win ended the long wait for a trophy at United with both club captain Harry Maguire and on-field de facto skipper Fernandes lifting the cup together under the Wembley arch.
