Luka Modric has praised Casemiro following the Brazilian enforcer's impressive performance in Manchester United's 2-1 win over Everton on Sunday evening.
Casemiro was lured to Manchester from Real Madrid in a £60million deal in the summer to end Erik ten Hag's search for a new No.6, however, he has been integrated into the first-team picture at Old Trafford slowly. But pressure has grown on Ten Hag to accelerate the Brazilian into his plans after the 30-year-old midfielder was a surprise omission from the Manchester United squad that were thumped 6-3 in last weekend's Manchester derby.
One week on, Casemiro was handed his first Premier League start by Ten Hag - and the multi-time Champions League winner bounced back from an early mishap to catch the eye at Goodison Park.
